Atti 8:29 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 8:29

Then the Spirit said unto Philip
Not the angel, a ministering Spirit, as in ( Acts 8:26 ) but the Holy Spirit, as the Syriac and Ethiopic versions read, the same with the Spirit of the Lord, ( Acts 8:39 ) who spoke unto him, either by an articulative voice, such as was the Bath Kol among the Jews; or inwardly, by a secret impulse upon him, he directed him, saying:

go near, and join thyself to this chariot;
he bid him make up to the chariot, he saw driving on the road at such a distance, and follow it, and attend it closely; and not leave it, till an opportunity of conversing with the person in it offered.

Atti 8:29 In-Context

27 Ed egli, levatosi, vi andò; ed ecco un uomo Etiopo, eunuco, barone di Candace, regina degli Etiopi, ch’era soprantendente di tutti i tesori d’essa, il quale era venuto in Gerusalemme per adorare.
28 Or egli se ne tornava; e, sedendo sopra il suo carro, leggeva il profeta Isaia.
29 E lo Spirito disse a Filippo: Accostati, e giungi questo carro.
30 E Filippo accorse, ed udì ch’egli leggeva il profeta Isaia, e gli disse: Intendi tu le cose che tu leggi?
31 Ed egli disse: E come potrei io intenderle, se non che alcuno mi guidi? E pregò Filippo che montasse, e sedesse con lui.
