At any given time the urge to sing "In The Jungle" is just a whim away... A whim away... A whim away...
My favorite "what if" in this story is what comes next...the Eunuch is reading Is 53. Philip explains to him about the Messiah. How far did they get? The text doesn't tell us, but I always picture the Eunuch sitting around a campfire later that evening reading a little farther down the scroll and getting to Is 56:1-7, which addresses both Eunuchs and Foreigners being welcomed into the temple, neither of which could enter most of the temple complex. Eunuchs are no longer "cut off" and will have a name enduring through generations (without needing to have kids). And all of this is related to the messianic texts and all the suffering servant stuff, too.
I always imagine it hitting the guy like a ton of bricks. Philip is gone, but he's shown the Ethiopian more in a few moments than he probably realized. It was a whole new way to read...not about promises far off but about promises that were being filled in his very life. That's cool stuff.
I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.
I'm nit sure I understand what it is.
Is it like a prayer group?
Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.
Wasn't sure, so figured I'd ask.
Religion of any kind is intriguing to me and sometimes confusing.
I try and understand what it is that is being said and the history of it.
