He is staying with Simon the tanner, whose house is by the sea." When the angel who spoke to him had gone, Cornelius called two of his servants and a devout soldier who was one of his attendants.
speaker_1NARRATOR
He told them everything that had happened and sent them to Joppa.

About noon the following day they were on their journey and approaching the city.

Kill and eat." "Surely not, Lord," Peter replied.
speaker_1NARRATOR
"I have never eaten anything impure or unclean." The voice spoke to him a second time, "Do not call anything impure that God has made." This happened three times, and immediately the sheet was taken back to heaven.
speaker_1NARRATOR
While Peter was wondering about the meaning of the vision, the men sent by Cornelius found out where Simon's house was and stopped at the gate.
Joel A'BellGUEST
Now send some men to Joppa and summon a man, a man named Simon Peter.
Joel A'BellGUEST
He's staying with Simon the Tanner who lives near the seashore.
Joel A'BellGUEST
Now I've been to Simon's house in Joppa and seen where it's got Simon the Tanner on the top of the house.
Joel A'BellGUEST
I've seen this house.
Joel A'BellGUEST
And so Cornelius sends some people to Simon the Tanner's house because Simon Peter is on the rooftop and in prayer he falls into a trance and has a vision of God laying down this sheet of all these unclean animals that they are not allowed to eat.
Joel A'BellGUEST
They're forbidden to eat pork and fish.
Joel A'BellGUEST
Like all these different animals that you can't touch.
Steve CrawfordHOST
But in the ancient world, typically, where you lived was attached to where you worked.
Steve CrawfordHOST
So Simon the tanner's house would have been filled with a bunch of dead animal carcasses.
Steve CrawfordHOST
As he worked with the leather, as he made garments and things out of leather, he would be continually having in his home dead animal carcasses.
Steve CrawfordHOST
Why does Peter stay here, and why does Luke repeatedly tell us that he stays with Simon the tanner? Because there is a paradigm shift.
Steve CrawfordHOST

No longer do people need to convert to Judaism to be right with the God of Scripture.
Kumar RajagopalanGUEST
But Peter doesn't actually invite them into his home.
Kumar RajagopalanGUEST
He invites them into Simon the Tanner's home.
Kumar RajagopalanGUEST
And I kind of think, I'd love to know what, you know, when I get to glory, what did Mrs. Tanner feel about this? You know, you've invited these Gentiles into my home.
Kumar RajagopalanGUEST
They're eating off my crockery.
Aaron GallagherHOST
I got Acts 8:9.
Aaron GallagherHOST
"But there was a man named Simon who had previously practiced magic in the city and amazed the people of Samaria, saying that he was someone great.
Aaron GallagherHOST
They all paid attention to him, from least to the greatest, saying, 'This man is the power of God that is called great.' And they paid attention to him because for a long time he had amazed them with his magic." And, and this is what I try to use in evangelism as well.
Aaron GallagherHOST
"But when they believed Philip as he preached the good news about the Kingdom of God and the name of Jesus." So there are two things specifically scripture gives us.
