Acts 9:35-37

The Voice

³⁵ All the local residents—both of Lydda and nearby Sharon—saw Aeneas healthy and strong again, so they turned to the Lord.

³⁶ In a nearby coastal city, Joppa, there lived a disciple whose Aramaic name was Tabitha, or Dorcas in Greek. She was a good woman—devotedly doing good and giving to the poor. ³⁷ While Peter was in Lydda, she fell sick and died. Her fellow disciples washed her body and laid her in an upstairs room.
