10 And since he was hungry, he wanted to enjoy some food. Then, as they were preparing it, an ecstasy of mind fell over him.
11 And he saw heaven opened, and a certain container descending, as if a great linen sheet were let down, by its four corners, from heaven to earth,
12 on which were all four-footed beasts, and the crawling things of the earth and the flying things of the air.
13 And a voice came to him: "Rise up, Peter! Kill and eat."
14 But Peter said: "Far be it from me, lord. For I have never eaten anything common or unclean."
15 And the voice, again a second time to him: "What God has purified, you shall not call common."
16 Now this was done three times. And immediately the container was taken up to heaven.
