Acts 9:41-43

Expanded Bible

⁴¹ He gave her his hand and helped her up. Then he called the believers and the widows into the room and showed them that Tabitha was alive. ⁴² People everywhere in Joppa learned about this, and many believed in the Lord. ⁴³ Peter stayed in Joppa for many days with a man named Simon who was a tanner [or Simon Byrseus; ^CByrseus means “tanner” (someone who works with animal skins), but could be a name or an occupation; the occupation was considered unclean by Jews since it involved the bodies of dead animals].
