(43) and he remained many days in Yafo with a certain leather tanner, Shim'on.

The F.O.G Message *

[43] Peter stayed in Joppa for some time with Simon, a tanner—showing how the gospel breaks down social barriers, as tanners were considered ceremonially unclean. The stage was being set for an even greater demonstration of God's barrier-breaking grace.

Young's Literal Translation

and it came to pass, that he remained many days in Joppa, with a certain one, Simon a tanner.
