But the voice answered me again from the heaven, What God has made clean, you do not call common.
because it does not enter into his heart, but into the belly, and goes out into the waste-bowl, purifying all food?
And the voice spoke to him again the second time, What God has made clean, you do not call common.
And he said to them, You know that it is an unlawful thing for a man, a Jew to keep company with or to come near to one of another nation. But God has shown me not to call any man common or unclean.
And this was done three times, and all were drawn up again into the heaven.
But I said, Not so, Lord, for nothing common or unclean has at any time entered into my mouth.
And He put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
For it is sanctified through the Word of God and prayer.
