Acts 8:30 - People's Commentary (NT)

Acts 8:30

28 was returning. And sitting in his chariot, he was reading Isaiah the prophet.

29 Then the Spirit said to Philip, “Go near and overtake this chariot.”

30 So Philip ran to him, and heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, “Do you understand what you are reading?”

31 And he said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he asked Philip to come up and sit with him.

32 The place in the Scripture which he read was this:
^a“He was led as a sheep to the slaughter;
And as a lamb before its shearer is silent,
^bSo He opened not His mouth.

33 In His humiliation His ^ajustice was taken away,
And who will declare His generation?
For His life is ^btaken from the earth.”
