In context
4 But Peter began and explained to them the whole sequence of events:
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.
