Read Acts 10.9-16. In 10.9-16: Peter's vision deals directly with the profane or unclean (see also his recounting in 11.5-11). In verses 12-13: In Lev 11.1-47, Israel was commanded to make a distinction among the four-footed creatures, not together all kinds together, particularly to eat. In verse 15: "What God has made clean" apparently now included creatures that had been identified as unclean according to the laws of Israel. The word profane means "vulgar" or "common" and could be used to refer to all all the nations not chosen by God or set apart by their observance of the law as holy to God. In verse 16: Repeating the vision three times anticipates the difficulty of the concern (11.1-8; 15. 1-2). Comments or Questions..
