1 The apostles and the other believers throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.
2 When Peter went to Jerusalem, those who were in favor of circumcising Gentiles criticized him, saying,
3 “You were a guest in the home of uncircumcised Gentiles, and you even ate with them!”
4 So Peter gave them a complete account of what had happened from the very beginning:
5 “While I was praying in the city of Joppa, I had a vision. I saw something coming down that looked like a large sheet being lowered by its four corners from heaven, and it stopped next to me.
6 I looked closely inside and saw domesticated and wild animals, reptiles, and wild birds.
