Peter: Visits Joppa; Stays with Simon, the Tanner; Raises Dorcas from the Dead
Source: Nav
Acts 9:36–43
In Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which is translated as Dorcas), who was always occupied with works of kindness and charity. / At that time, however, she became sick and died, and her body was washed and placed in an upper room. / Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples heard that Peter was there and sent two men to urge him, “Come to us without delay.”
