Acts 8:30-31 - Then Philip ran up to the chariot and heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet. "Do you understand what you are reading?" Philip asked.
"How can I," he said, "unless someone explains it to me?" So he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
I wonder how big this chariot was. There was room for at least two men to sit. The chariot had probably stopped moving. Were they sitting on the back edge of a Ben Hur racing style chariot? Was there still a driver aboard? Was this a fancier chariot? This was, after all, the vehicle used for long journeys by an important queen's treasurer. Was it perhaps even enclosed, looking more like a stagecoach? Was it cushioned? Did it have (real) gold trim with jewels?
