And he became very hungry and wished to eat; but while they were making ready, a trance came upon him, and he beheld heaven opened, and a sort of vessel descending, as it were a large sheet having cords at the four corners, and let down upon the earth; wherein were all the fourfooted beasts and creeping things of the earth, and birds of the air.

Wherefore I came without objection, when sent for. I ask therefore, for what reason did ye send for me?
