Love is both tough and sensitive
In Acts 8, 9, and 10 we have the stories of three conversions -- the unnamed eunuch from Ethiopia, the Jew Saul from Tarsus, and the centurion Cornelius from Rome. The conversion of Saul has so dominated the other two stories, and especially that of the man from Ethiopia, that we tend to overlook their significance. When one studies carefully the account of the conversion of the eunuch and thinks about why Luke may have included it in his writing, one can begin to understand why some suggest that the account of the Ethiopian should overshadow that of Saul's conversion.
