Acts 10:16

14 But Peter said, “Not so, Lord! ^aFor I have never eaten anything common or unclean.”

15 And a voice spoke to him again the second time, ^a“What God has cleansed you must not call common.”

16 This was done three times. And the object was taken up into heaven again.

Summoned to Caesarea

17 Now while Peter¹ wondered within himself what this vision which he had seen meant, behold, the men who had been sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon’s house, and stood before the gate.

18 And they called and asked whether Simon, whose surname was Peter, was lodging there.

Acts 10:16

This was done thrice - For the greater certainty, and to make the deeper impression on the apostle' s mind.

And the vessel was received up again into heaven - Both Jews and Gentiles came equally from God; and to him, both, by the preaching of the Gospel, shall again return.
