Acts 9:37-39

The Voice

³⁷ While Peter was in Lydda, she fell sick and died. Her fellow disciples washed her body and laid her in an upstairs room. ³⁸ They had heard Peter was nearby, so two of them went with an urgent message, “Please come to Joppa as soon as possible.”

³⁹ Peter went with them and immediately entered the room where the corpse had been placed. It was quite a scene—the widows of the community were crowded in the room, weeping, showing the various items of clothing that Dorcas had made for them.
