Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they said unto him, where wilt thou that we prepare?] Meaning, not in what village, town, or city, for it was a fixed and determined thing, that the passover should be eaten at Jerusalem, and nowhere else; see Deuteronomy 16:2, but in what house in Jerusalem?

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See this passage explained in the Matthew 26:17-19 notes, and Mark 14:12-16 notes.
