Contextual Overview

¹ In the mean time, the apostles, and the brethren, who were in Judea, heard that the Gentiles had likewise receiv'd the word of God. ² and when Peter was return'd to Jerusalem, the Jewish converts objected to his conduct, ³ and ask'd him, why did you go to eat with the uncircumcised? ⁴ but Peter represented the whole affair to them, ⁵ saying, as I was at prayers in Joppa, I saw something like a great sheet, tied at the four corners, which descended from heaven, and came just to me. ⁶ as I was considering it very attentively, I saw several quadrupeds, wild beasts, reptiles and birds. ⁷ then I heard a voice, which said, rise, Peter; kill and eat. ⁸ but I said, Lord, by no means: for I never did eat any thing impure, and defiled. ⁹ but the voice from heaven address'd it self to me again, and said, don't call that impure, which God has purified. ¹⁰ this was done three times, and then the whole scene was mounted to heaven.

three: Numbers 24:10, John 13:38, John 21:17, 2 Corinthians 12:8

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And this was done three times,.... That is, the voice from heaven answered three times, and encouraged Peter to kill and eat; and so the Ethiopic version renders it, "and he likewise said unto me the third time"; the words as before:

and all were drawn up again into heaven; the sheet with all the creatures upon it, by the same hands that let it down; the Syriac version renders it, "and all betook themselves to heaven"; as if it all went up to heaven of itself; and the Ethiopic version, "and the whole returned again to heaven"; :-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
