That word, I say, ye know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;

How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:

Him God raised up the third day, and showed him openly;

Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.

And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.

To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

New Defender's Study Bible Notes

Acts 10:37

10:37 baptism which John preached. John’s baptism, accompanied by his preaching of repentance and salvation through the coming Lamb of God (John 1:15-34), marked the beginning of “that word” (compare Acts 10:36-37) which came “preaching peace by Jesus Christ.” Note also Acts 1:22.

Acts 10:38

10:38 went about doing good. The modern world tends to ridicule “do-gooders,” but if Jesus is our example (I Peter 2:21), we also should go about doing good. “To do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased” (Hebrews 13:16).
