Thematic Bible: Visits lydda; heals aeneas

And it came to pass that, Peter, going through all quarters went down unto the saints also dwelling in Lydda. And he found there a certain man, by name Aeneas, who, for eight years, had been lying prostrate upon a bed, for he was paralysed. And Peter said unto him - Aeneas! Jesus Christ healeth thee! Arise, and smooth thy bed for thyself. And, straightway, he arose.
