Acts 16:34

What is the exegetical teaching for this verse from a paedobaptism perspective? Thanks.

"And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house."

Again, I'm just trying to Scripturally sort out the paedobaptism perspective. Hope nobody takes this verse as being confrontational.

This verse is why some folks like to call it oikobaptism instead of paedo.

ESV Acts 16:34 Then he brought them up into his house and set food before them. And he rejoiced along with his entire household that he had believed in God.
