and a voice did answer me a second time out of the heaven, What God did cleanse, thou -- declare not thou common.
because it doth not enter into his heart, but into the belly, and into the drain it doth go out, purifying all the meats.'
and `there is' a voice again a second time unto him: `What God did cleanse, thou, declare not thou common;'
And he said unto them, `Ye know how it is unlawful for a man, a Jew, to keep company with, or to come unto, one of another race, but to me God did shew to call no man common or unclean;
`And this happened thrice, and again was all drawn up to the heaven,
and I said, Not so, Lord; because anything common or unclean hath at no time entered into my mouth;
and did put no difference also between us and them, by the faith having purified their hearts;
for it is sanctified through the word of God and intercession.
