Charles Ellicott Commentary
"I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, a certain vessel descending, as it were a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even unto me:" — Acts 11:5 (ASV)
It came even to me.—The variations in the narrative are few and of little importance. There is, perhaps, a touch of the vividness of personal recollection in the description of the sheet as coming even to me, as compared with its being let down to the earth in Acts 10:11.
