For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

New Defender's Study Bible Notes

2:39 afar off. This would seem to indicate that Peter understood the gospel message was for all nations, not just the Jews (in fact, Jesus had been quite explicit about this when He gave the Great Commission). However, Peter did not understand at this time that converts did not have to come to Christ by way of Judaism.
