Acts 8:39-40
EasyEnglish Bible

39 They both came up out of the water again. Immediately the Lord's Holy Spirit took Philip away from that place. The officer did not see Philip again. He continued his journey and he was very happy.

40 Philip saw that he was now in Azotus.[a] From there, he visited many towns and he told people the good news about Jesus. He did this as he went all the way to Caesarea.[b]

Footnotes

  1. 8:40 Azotus was a town 30 kilometres north of Gaza.
  2. 8:40 Caesarea was an important city in Israel. The Roman ruler sometimes lived there. Caesarea was at the coast and it was an important port. It was 70 kilometres from Jerusalem. We think that Philip lived in Caesarea for many years. Philip was still living in Caesarea when Luke wrote about him again in Acts 21:8.
