Acts 10:8

Joppa

6 He is staying with Simon the tanner, whose house is by the sea.”

7 When the angel who spoke to him had gone, Cornelius called two of his servants and a devout soldier from among his attendants.

He explained what had happened and sent them to Joppa.

9 The next day at about the sixth hour, as the men were approaching the city on their journey, Peter went up on the roof to pray.

10 He became hungry and wanted something to eat, but while the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance.
