Commentary on Acts 8:29

Theological / Devotional

The Spirit said. Compare on v. 26. Here the Spirit speaks, and gives explicit instructions to the evangelist, by an inward prompting or an audible voice.

Join thyself. This royal official doubtless had a large retinue, to which it would be natural for a single traveler on a desert road to attach himself. Philip would be able to approach and hear what was read without being considered intrusive.
