At Joppe he raised to life a woman, called Tabitha, who was remarkable for her alms to the poor. It was at Joppe that St. Peter was called by di vine appointment, and instructed by a mysterious vision to communicate the faith to the Gentiles in the person of Cornelius, a Roman Centurion, who was remarkable for his piety to 0d, and his alms-deeds to the poor. Cor nelius residing then at Caesarea, the capital of Palestine, was on his part admonished by an angel to send for Si mon, surnamed Peter, who accordingly made no diffi culty of going to Caesarea, where, after explaining the doctrine of Jesus Christ to the virtuous Centurion and his family, he had the consolation of seeing them inspir ed by the Holy Ghost, and endowed with the miraculous gift of tongues, which determined the Apostle to baptize them upon the spot.
