SEV Biblia, Chapter 10:12
En el cual había de todos los animales cuadrpedos de la tierra, y fieras, y reptiles, y aves del cielo.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Acts 10:12
Verse 12. All manner of four-footed beasts, &c.] Every species of quadrupeds, whether wild or domestic; all reptiles, and all fowls. Consequently, both the clean and unclean were present in this visionary representation: those that the Jewish law allowed to be sacrificed to God, or proper for food; as well as those which that law had prohibited in both cases: such as the beasts that do not chew the cud; fish which have no scales; fowls of prey and such others as are specified in Lev. xi. 1, &c., where see the notes.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 12. Wherein were all manner of four-footed beasts of the earth , etc.] Not as if they were painted upon it, and these were only pictures and representations of them made on the linen sheet; but as if they really add actually were upon it alive; since Peter is afterwards called upon to kill and eat: and these design four-footed beasts of every kind, that are tame, as distinct from the wild ones, after mentioned, as horses, camels, oxen, sheep, hogs, dogs, etc. and wild beasts ; lions, tigers, panthers, bears, etc. This clause is left out in the Alexandrian copy, and in the Vulgate Latin and Syriac versions: and creeping things ; the above copy and versions here add, of the earth, which they omit in the first clause; these intend serpents, snakes, worms, &c: and fowls of the air ; birds of all sorts: now the whole of this signifies, that the church of Christ, under the Gospel dispensation, consists of all sorts of persons, of all nations, Jews and Gentiles, the one being reckoned clean, the other unclean; of men of all sorts of tempers and dispositions, comparable to wild or tame beasts; and of all sorts of sinners, who before conversion have been greater or lesser sinners; as well as denotes that the distinction of food under the ceremonial law was now ceased. This is not designed to represent that there are good and bad in Gospel churches, as there certainly are and much less that immoral persons are to be received and retained there; but that those who have been of the blackest character, if called by grace, should be admitted into them; and chiefly to show that Gentiles reckoned unclean, when converted, are not to be rejected.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 9-18 - The prejudices of Peter against the Gentiles, would have prevented his going to Cornelius, unless the Lord had prepared him for this service To tell a Jew that God had directed those animals to be reckoned clea which were hitherto deemed unclean, was in effect saying, that the la of Moses was done away. Peter was soon made to know the meaning of it God knows what services are before us, and how to prepare us; and we know the meaning of what he has taught us, when we find what occasio we have to make use of it.

Vincent's NT Word Studies
12. All manner of four-footed beasts (panta ta tetrapoda). Lit., all the four-footed beasts. Without exception, clean and unclean. Not, of very many kinds.Wild beasts. The best texts omit.
Robertson's NT Word Studies
10:12 {Were} (hupercen). Imperfect of huparcw in sense of en, to exist, be. Fish are not mentioned, perhaps because the sheet had no water, though they were clean and unclean also (#Le 11:9; De 14:9). {All manner of} (panta). Literally, all, but clearly all varieties, not all individuals. Both clean and unclean animals are in the sheet.
