Acts 8:31

31 The official replied, "How can I understand unless someone explains it to me?" And he invited Philip to climb up and sit in the carriage with him.

Acts 8:31 In-Context

29 The Holy Spirit said to Philip, "Go over to that carriage and stay close to it."
30 Philip ran over and heard him reading from the book of the prophet Isaiah. He asked him, "Do you understand what you are reading?"
31 The official replied, "How can I understand unless someone explains it to me?" And he invited Philip to climb up and sit in the carriage with him.
32 The passage of scripture which he was reading was this: "He was like a sheep that is taken to be slaughtered, like a lamb that makes no sound when its wool is cut off. He did not say a word.
33 He was humiliated, and justice was denied him. No one will be able to tell about his descendants, because his life on earth has come to an end."
