Contextual Overview

9 On the morowe as they went on their iourney, and drewe nye vnto the citie, Peter went vp vnto the highest part of the house to pray, about the sixth houre. 10 And whe he waxed hungry, he would haue eaten: But whyle they made redie, he fell into a traunce. 11 And saw heauen opened, and a certaine vessell come downe vnto him, as it had ben a great sheete, knyt at the foure corners, & was let downe to the earth. 12 Wherin were all maner of fourefooted beastes of the earth, & wilde beastes, and wormes, and foules of the ayre. 13 And there came a voyce to hym: ryse Peter, kyll and eate. 14 But Peter sayde, Not so Lorde: For I haue neuer eaten any thyng that is common or vncleane. 15 And the voyce spake vnto hym againe the seconde tyme: What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. 16 This was done thryse, and the vessell was receaued vp agayne into heauen. 17 Nowe whyle Peter doubted in hym selfe, what this vision whiche he hadde seene meant: beholde, the men whiche were sent from Cornelius, had made inquiraunce for Simons house, & stoode before the doore, 18 And called, and asked whether Simo which was sirnamed Peter, were lodged there.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Wherein were all manner of four-footed beasts of the earth,.... Not as if they were painted upon it, and these were only pictures and representations of them made on the linen sheet; but as if they really add actually were upon it alive; since Peter is afterwards called upon to kill and eat: and these design four-footed beasts of every kind, that are tame, as distinct from the wild ones, after mentioned, as horses, camels, oxen, sheep, hogs, dogs, c.

and wild beasts lions, tigers, panthers, bears, c. This clause is left out in the Alexandrian copy, and in the Vulgate Latin and Syriac versions:

and creeping things the above copy and versions here add, "of the earth", which they omit in the first clause; these intend serpents, snakes, worms, c:

and fowls of the air birds of all sorts: now the whole of this signifies, that the church of Christ, under the Gospel dispensation, consists of all sorts of persons, of all nations, Jews and Gentiles, the one being reckoned clean, the other unclean; of men of all sorts of tempers and dispositions, comparable to wild or tame beasts; and of all sorts of sinners, who before conversion have been greater or lesser sinners; as well as denotes that the distinction of food under the ceremonial law was now ceased. This is not designed to represent that there are good and bad in Gospel churches, as there certainly are and much less that immoral persons are to be received and retained there; but that those who have been of the blackest character, if called by grace, should be admitted into them; and chiefly to show that Gentiles reckoned unclean, when converted, are not to be rejected.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Wherein ... - This particular vision was suggested by Peter’s hunger, Acts 10:10. It was designed, however, to teach him an important lesson in regard to the introduction of all nations to the gospel. Its descending from heaven may have been an intimation that that religion which was about to abolish the distinction between the Jews and other nations was of divine origin. See Revelation 21:2.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Acts 10:12. All manner of four-footed beasts, c.] Every species of quadrupeds, whether wild or domestic all reptiles, and all fowls. Consequently, both the clean and unclean were present in this visionary representation: those that the Jewish law allowed to be sacrificed to God, or proper for food; as well as those which that law had prohibited in both cases: such as the beasts that do not chew the cud; fish which have no scales; fowls of prey and such others as are specified in Leviticus 11:1, &c., where see the notes.
