Gevurot 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.

Gevurot 8:29 In-Context

27 And having got up, Philippos went. And, hinei, an Ethiopian man, a eunuch, a court official of the Kandake of the Ethiopians! He was over all of her Otzrot (treasury) and had come worshipping to Yerushalayim, [Ps 68:31; 87:4; Zeph 3:10; Isa 56:3-5; 1Kgs 8:41-43]

28 And he was returning and sitting in his chariot and he was reading Yeshayah HaNavi.

29 And the Ruach Hakodesh said to Philippos, "Approach and join this chariot."

30 And having run, Philippos heard him reading Yeshayah HaNavi, and Philippos said, "So do you have binah of what you are reading?"

31 And he said, "How then might I be able, unless someone will guide me?" And he invited Philippos to come up and sit with him.
