TSNTyndale Study Notes:

11:1-18 Jews traditionally kept themselves separate and did not eat or associate socially with Gentiles (10:28; 22:21-22; see John 4:9, 27; 18:28; Gal 2:12-14). Therefore, when the Jewish believers in Jerusalem learned that Gentiles had received the word of God, they criticized Peter’s unconventional actions and wanted an explanation, which Peter provided.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

ἀρξάμενος & Πέτρος ἐξετίθετο αὐτοῖς

/having/_begun & Peter /was/_explaining ˱to˲_them

Luke is using the word beginning to indicate that Peter had been doing something else (listening to the complaints against him) but then began to do something new when he had the opportunity to speak. It might not be necessary to translate the word began, since it may seem to convey redundant information that would be not be natural to express in your language. Alternate translation: “Peter explained to them”
