Luke
Acts 11:7ESV·traditional attribution
And I heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter; kill and eat.’
Matthew Henry Presbyterian
We Gentiles sit in darkness until the gospel reaches us, and that is cause for joy. Yet here the Jerusalem church hears this news with shock, as though they had not been commanded to preach to every creature. Pride and bigotry hold fast against the clearest discoveries of divine truth.

John Gill Reformed Baptist
And I heard a voice saying unto me,.... As he apprehended in his mind; and this voice he heard in the same sense and manner, as the Apostle Paul heard when in a trance, Act 22:17. arise, Peter, slay and eat; that is, get up and slay some of these creatures upon the sheet, and dress them and eat them.
