Chapter
V.—Peter Departs for Sidon.
After Peter had spent a few days in teaching them
in this way, and in healing them, they were baptized. And after
that,1082
| 1082 We have adopted
Wieseler’s emendation. The text may be translated
thus: “And after that, among his other wondrous deeds, all
the rest (who had not been baptized) sat down,” etc. | all sat down together in the
market-places in sackcloth and ashes, grieving because of his other
wondrous works, and repenting their former sins. And
when they of Sidon heard it, they
did likewise, and sent to beseech Peter, since they could not come
themselves for their diseases. And Peter did not spend many days
in Tyre; but when he had instructed all its inhabitants, and freed them
from all manners of diseases and had founded a church, and set over it
as bishop one of the elders who were with him, he departed for
Sidon. But when Simon heard that Peter was coming, he straightway
fled to Beyrout with Appion and his friends.
