Acts 11:5-10 ▼

5 “I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision of something like a large sheet being let down from heaven by its four corners, and it came right down to me.

6 I looked at it closely and saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, reptiles, and birds of the air.

7 Then I heard a voice saying to me, ‘Get up, Peter, kill and eat.

8 ‘No, Lord, I said, ‘for nothing impure or unclean has ever entered my mouth.

9 But the voice spoke from heaven a second time, ‘ Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.

10 This happened three times, and everything was drawn back up into heaven.
