Commentary on Acts 10:13

Theological / Devotional

Kill, and eat. Peter was hungry, and the natural promptings of appetite were confirmed by a voice from heaven. His resistance was because of conscience. Peter had not yet learned that the distinction between Jew and Gentile was done away in Christ. That Peter failed to learn this fully even after this vision is shown by his later dissembling at Antioch, for which Paul so frankly rebuked him.
