with the hides of animals, using a lime solution to remove any fur or traces of flesh and fat. Then he treated the hide with a potent liquor so that it could be used to make articles of leather. The tanning process smelled bad and required a great deal of water, which may explain why Simon lived <strong>by the sea,</strong> likely on the outskirts of Joppa. According to the Mosaic Law, a person who worked with the carcasses of animals was ceremonially unclean. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/3/0" data-bid="4-1" class="b">Le 5:2;</a><a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/3/1" data-bid="4-2" class="b"> 11:39</a>) Therefore, many Jews looked down on tanners and would hesitate to lodge with one. In fact, the <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/4/0">Talmud</a> later rated the tanner’s profession as lower than that of a dung collector. However, Peter did not let prejudice keep him from staying with Simon. Peter’s open-mindedness in this case makes an interesting prelude to the assignment that came next—visiting a Gentile in his home. Some scholars consider the Greek word for “tanner” (<em>byr·seusʹ</em>) to be a surname of Simon.</p> </span></li></ul></div><div class="group footnote"><div class="header"><span class="marker"><span class="icon"></span></span><span class="icon"></span><h4 class="title"><span class="scalableui">Footnotes</span></h4></div><ul class="content"><li class="item footnote" data-extract-id="verseFootnote-21"><span class="marker"><span class="scalableui">*</span></span><span class="scalableui"><p id="p226" data-pid="226">Or “being entertained by.”</p> </span></li></ul></div><div class="group index collapsible collapsed"><div class="header"><span class="marker"><span class="icon"></span></span><span class="icon"></span><h4 class="title"><span class="scalableui">Indexes</span></h4></div><ul class="content"><li class="item ref-rsg" data-extract-id=""><div class="subtitle">Research Guide</div><span class="scalableui"><p id="p690" data-pid="690" class="se"></p> <p id="p691" data-pid="691" class="su"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204434/663/0"><em>Bearing Witness,</em> p. 69</a></p> <div id="p692" data-pid="692"><p data-pid="692" class="su"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204434/664/0"><em>The Watchtower,</em></a></p><p data-pid="692" class="sk"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204434/664/0">6/1/2011, p. 18</a></p> </div><p id="p693" data-pid="693" class="se"></p> </span></li><li class="item ref-dx" data-extract-id=""><div class="subtitle">Publications Index</div><span class="scalableui"><p id="p211" data-pid="211" class="sx"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270044/209/0">bt 69;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270044/209/3"> w11 6/1 18;</a></p> <p id="p212" data-pid="212" class="sx"></p> <p id="p253" data-pid="253" class="sx"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200020044/251/0">g72 1/8 27;</a><span class="ni"> g63 11/8 23</span></p> <p id="p254" data-pid="254" class="sx"></p> </span></li></ul></div></div><div class="section" data-key="44-10-7" data-section-citation="044010007044010007"><h3 class="title"><span class="scalableui">Acts 10:7</span></h3><div class="group index collapsible collapsed"><div class="header"><span class="marker"><span class="icon"></span></span><span class="icon"></span><h4 class="title"><span class="scalableui">Indexes</span></h4></div><ul class="content"><li class="item ref-rsg" data-extract-id=""><div class="subtitle">Research Guide</div><span class="scalableui"><p id="p693" data-pid="693" class="se"></p> <p id="p694" data-pid="694" class="su"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204434/665/0"><em>Insight,</em> Volume 1<em>,</em> pp. 176,</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204434/666/0"> 971</a></p> <p id="p695" data-pid="695" class="se"></p> </span></li><li class="item ref-dx" data-extract-id=""><div class="subtitle">Publications Index</div><span class="scalableui"><p id="p212" data-pid="212" class="sx"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270044/210/0">it-1 176,</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270044/210/2"> 971;</a></p> <p id="p213" data-pid="213" class="sx"></p> <p id="p254" data-pid="254" class="sx"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200020044/252/0">ad 304</a></p> <p id="p255" data-pid="255" class="sx"></p> </span></li></ul></div></div><div class="section" data-key="44-10-9" data-section-citation="044010009044010009"><h3 class="title"><span class="scalableui">Acts 10:9</span></h3><div class="studyNoteGroup"><ul class="content"><li class="item studyNote" data-extract-id=""><span class="scalableui"><p id="p11" data-pid="11" class="s5"><strong>the housetop:</strong> The roofs of houses were flat and were used for many purposes, including storage (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/5/0" data-bid="6-1" class="b">Jos 2:6</a>), rest (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/6/0" data-bid="7-1" class="b">2Sa 11:2</a>), sleep (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/7/0" data-bid="8-1" class="b">1Sa 9:26</a>), festivals for worship (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/8/0" data-bid="9-1" class="b">Ne 8:16-18</a>), and as a private place to pray.

The Greek word is rendered “ecstasy” (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/12/0" data-bid="13-1" class="b">Mr 5:42</a>), “amazement” (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/13/0" data-bid="14-1" class="b">Lu 5:26</a>), and “overwhelmed with emotion” (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/14/0" data-bid="15-1" class="b">Mr 16:8</a>). In the book of Acts, the word is connected with divine action. Apparently, the holy spirit would, at times, superimpose on a person’s mind a vision or a picture of God’s purpose while the person was in a state of deep concentration or a sleeplike condition. An individual in a trance would be oblivious of his physical surroundings and would be receptive to a vision.—See <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070699/7/0">study note on Ac 22:17</a>.</p>
