Peter, (1 BC-67AD), praying on the rooftop, fell into a trance and saw a great sheet descending from heaven filled with all kinds of animals, both clean and unclean. A voice said, “Rise, Peter; kill and eat.” But Peter refused, saying he had never eaten anything common or unclean. The voice replied, “What God has cleansed, do not call common.” This vision occurred three times, preparing Peter for what was about to happen.
