"Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
Then the Spirit said unto Philip,.... Not the angel, a ministering Spirit, as in Act 8:26 but the Holy Spirit, as the Syriac and Ethiopic versions read, the same with
the Spirit of the Lord, Act 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.
