Philip and the Ethiopian

Philip and the Ethiopian

(Isaiah 53:1–8)

26Now an angel of [the] Lord said to Philip “Get up and go south to the desert road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” 27[So] he started out, and on his way [he met] an Ethiopian eunuch, a court official in charge of the entire treasury of Candace,[fn] queen of [the] Ethiopians. [He] had gone to Jerusalem to worship, 28and on his return was sitting in his chariot reading Isaiah the prophet.

29The Spirit said to Philip, “Go over to [that] chariot and stay by [it].”

30[So] Philip ran up [and] heard [the man] reading Isaiah the prophet. “Do you understand what you are reading?” [Philip] asked.

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

32[The eunuch] was reading this passage of Scripture “He was led like a sheep to [the] slaughter, and as a lamb before the shearer [is] silent, so He did not open His mouth.

33In His humiliation He was deprived of justice. Who can recount His descendants? For His life was removed from the earth.”[fn]

34“Tell me said the eunuch, “who {is} the prophet talking about, himself or someone else?”

35Then Philip began with this very Scripture and told him the good news about Jesus.

36As they traveled along the road [and] came to some water, the eunuch said, “Look, [here is] water! What is [there] to prevent me [from] being baptized?”[fn] 38And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and [Philip] baptized him.

39When they came up out of the water, [the] Spirit of [the] Lord carried Philip {away}, and the eunuch saw him no more, [but] went on his way rejoicing. 40But Philip appeared at Azotus and traveled through [that region], preaching the gospel in all the towns until he came to Caesarea.
