Acts 10:11-15

Acts 10:11-15 Saw heaven opened. The meaning of the vision is plain. Peter was hungry (Acts 10:10). He saw, let down from heaven, all kinds of animals, those ceremonially unclean and prohibited by the Mosaic law, as well as others (Acts 10:11), and was told to kill and eat (Acts 10:13). When he answered that he had never eaten anything "common" (as opposed to holy) and "unclean" (Acts 10:14), that is, forbidden by Moses, he was told that what God had cleansed was not common or unclean (Acts 10:15). This could only mean that the ceremonial distinctions of the law were abrogated (Leviticus 11:2-45 De 14:3-21). It was at this time that the messengers from a Gentile, one of a class, with which even Peter would not eat, yet for which Christ had died, presented themselves (Acts 10:21). The object of the vision was to show Peter that it was the will of the Lord that he should go.
