Acts 11:2

Verse 2 of 30. The 11th of 28 chapters in Acts, in Acts.

1Now the apostles and the brothers who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.

2When Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision contended with him,

3saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!”

4But Peter began, and explained to them in order, saying,

5“I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision: a certain container descending, like it was a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners. It came as far as me.

6When I had looked intently at it, I considered, and saw the four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky.
