Peter’s Miracles in Lydda and Joppa

Acts 9:32-43

¶“32Peter was travelling all around, and he came down to visit the holy people who lived at Lydda. In Lydda, 33Peter came upon a man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden with paralysis for eight years. 34Peter said to him, 'Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you. Rise up and make your bed.' Immediately Aeneas got out of bed. 35All the residents of Lydda and Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.” (Acts 9:32-35).

¶“36At Joppa, there was a disciple named Tabitha. Her name translated is Dorcas or Gazelle. This woman was full of good works and constant acts of mercy. 37However, she fell sick in those days, and died. Her carers washed her and laid her in an upper room. 38The disciples at Joppa heard that Peter was nearby at Lydda. So they sent two men to Peter, imploring him to come to them without delay. 39Peter got up and went with them. On reaching Joppa, they brought Peter into the upper room. All the widows stood by weeping. They showed Peter the coats and garments that Dorcas had made while she was with them alive.” (Acts 9:36-39).

¶“40Peter asked everyone to leave the room. He knelt and prayed. Then he turned to the body and said, 'Tabitha, arise!' Tabitha opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up. 41He offered her his hand, and lifted her up. Then he called the holy ones and widows and presented Tabitha alive. 42This miracle became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord. 43Peter ended up staying many days in Joppa, as a guest of Simon, a tanner.” (Acts 40-43).
