Matthew Poole and continuators on Acts 8:36

36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: And the eunuch said, See, here is water , what doth hinder me to be baptized?

This water is supposed to be a Fountain in a Town called Bethsora, or a River called Eleutherus, which in that road must needs be passed over; it being otherwise very dry▪ and water very scarce there.

Altho it was not expresly mentioned, Philip had informed this Eunuch concerning baptism, its nature, and use, which made him express such desire after it; which else he had not done.
