Acts 8:34-36 King James Version (KJV)
34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
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?
Acts 8:34-36 Expanded Bible (EXB)
34 The •officer [L eunuch] said to Philip, “Please tell me, who is the prophet talking about—himself or someone else [C the idea of a suffering messiah was not commonly understood in Judaism]?” 35 Philip •began to speak [L opened his mouth], and starting with this same Scripture, he told the man the •Good News [Gospel] about Jesus.
36 While they were traveling down the road, they came to some water. The •officer [L eunuch]said, “Look, here is water. What is •stopping [preventing] me from being baptized?”

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
34 So he asked more questions trying to seek and dig into scripture this shows his thirst to learn about Jesus. The prophet often spoke two different ways a soon fulfillment and then also a later thru Jesus.
35 So Philip preaches Jesus, he saw opportunity and used it for the Lord; this is why Philip was brought here by the Spirit. We should always preach Jesus.
36 Water may have not been as common in the wilderness. The eunuch understood the importance of being baptized to claim his walk with the Lord.
