Acts 10:9-16
10:9 About noon the next day, while they were on their way and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray.
10:10 He became hungry and wanted to eat, but while they were preparing the meal, a trance came over him.
10:11 He saw heaven opened and an object something like a large sheet descending, being let down to earth by its four corners.
10:12 In it were all kinds of four-footed animals and reptiles of the earth and wild birds.
10:13 Then a voice said to him, “Get up, Peter; slaughter and eat!”
10:14 But Peter said, “Certainly not, Lord, for I have never eaten anything defiled and ritually unclean!”
10:15 The voice spoke to him again, a second time, “What God has made clean, you must not consider ritually unclean!”
10:16 This happened three times, and immediately the object was taken up into heaven.
Acts 10:28
10:28 He said to them, “You know that
it is unlawful
for a Jew
to associate with or visit a Gentile,
yet God has shown me that I should call no person
defiled or ritually unclean.
Acts 10:34-35
10:34 Then Peter started speaking: “I now truly understand that God does not show favoritism in dealing with people,
10:35 but in every nation the person who fears him and does what is right is welcomed before him.
