Peter is staying with a tanner. I’ve heard that uncleanliness might be foreshadowing this next event with Cornelius; Cornelius is a Gentile so is also unclean.


God shakes up expectations and sends Peter to chat with Cornelius. God clarifies the direction for Peter with the vision of the sheet of unclean animals. God intends the Good News not just for his chosen people, and the spread is beginning. God uses attentive people who do what He asks.
