   Was Simon Peter a fisherman or a tanner?

   • Although Simon Peter was a fisherman by trade (Mark 1:16), he may have been earning his keep by working in the tanning trade with his host, Simon. The three men who came looking for Peter at Simon the tanner’s house were sent by a Roman centurion named Cornelius, who lived in Caesarea.

   Why did St Peter make his abode a tanner?

   • It is a sign that in the mind of St Peter some usages and prejudices of the Jews were already becoming of small account, when he makes his abode at the house of Simon a tanner. Such a step prepares us for the history of the next chapter, where he is instructed to go and preach to and baptize the Gentile Cornelius.

   Was Peter a tanner?

   • The Jews are said to have considered the trade of a tanner unclean; but if this were so, it would not be safe to infer that Peter was already indifferent to ceremonial uncleanness. We know he was not so (Acts 10:14), but probably in his line of life he could not act up to all the nicer distinctions of the strictest Pharisees.

   Can Peter stay in the home of a tanner if he was unclean?

   • Peter has no problem staying in the home of a tanner who was unclean, yet will not enter the home of a Gentile God-fearer, someone who was likely more “clean” than the tanner, with respect to the Law. The difference, of course, is that even if Cornelius was a God-Fearer, he was still an uncircumcised Gentile.
