Acts 11

Πέτρος recounts his vision of the sheet with unclean animals and his visit to Κορνήλιος in Καῖσαρεια, defending the inclusion of Gentiles before the circumcised believers in Ἱεροσόλυμα, who praise Θεός for granting repentance to the ἔθνη.[1][2][3] In Ἀντιόχεια, the ἐκκλησία grows, Βαρναβᾶς fetches Παῦλος, prophets including Ἀγάβος foretell a famine under Κλαύδιοs Καῖσαρ, and disciples send relief to Ἰουδαία via Βαρναβᾶς and Παῦλος.[1][3][4]
