John Chrysostom, on Acts 8:26

“Now an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying: Arise, go towards the south, to the way that goeth down from Jerusalem into Gaza: this is desert.”

“See Angels assisting the preaching, and not themselves preaching, but calling these to the work. But the wonderful nature of the occurrence is shown also by this: that what of old was rare, and hardly done, here takes place with ease, and see with what frequency!”
