Church Fathers on Acts 8:29

sitting in his chariot he read. And, it says, the Spirit said to Philip, Go near, and join yourself to this chariot. And Philip ran there to him, and heard him reading the prophet Esaias, and said, Do you understand what you read? And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? Acts 8:29-31 Observe again his piety; that though he did not understand, he read, and then after reading, examines.
