“And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.”
'How can I,' he replied, 'unless someone explains it to me?' So he invited Philip to come up and sit with him - the eunuch's response reveals genuine openness: he acknowledges that understanding requires 'someone to explain' (tis hodēgēsei me, someone to guide me). He 'invited Philip to come up and sit with him' (anakalesato ton Philippon anabēnai), creating an intimate teaching moment. The eunuch becomes a student, humble and eager.
