What the Fathers say
Eastern Fathers
John Chrysostom
Great was the gain to Philip also: that which he heard concerning the Prophets, concerning Habakkuk, concerning Ezekiel, and the rest, he saw done in his own person. Thence it appears that he went a long distance, seeing he was found at Azotus. The Spirit set him there, where he was thenceforth to preach: And passing through, he preached in all the cities, until he came to Caesarea.
Theophylact of Ohrid
Thus everything was arranged in a divine manner: Philip found himself in Azotus. It was here that he was then to preach.
Oecumenius
It is further shown that the journey was long if he was found at Azotus. For there he placed him where it was fitting that he should afterward preach, and from there to depart into Caesarea, his country. [CHRYSOSTOM]
Western Saints
Bede
He preached to all the cities until he came to Caesarea. He says of Palestine, where it is described below that he had a house, which is shown to this day, as well as the room of his four prophesying virgin daughters.
