Contextual Overview
17 Several days later, the son of the woman who owned the house got sick, and he kept getting worse, until finally he died. 18 The woman shouted at Elijah, "What have I done to you? I thought you were God's prophet. Did you come here to cause the death of my son as a reminder that I've sinned against God?" 19 "Bring me your son," Elijah said. Then he took the boy from her arms and carried him upstairs to the room where he was staying. Elijah laid the boy on his bed 20 and prayed, " Lord God, why did you do such a terrible thing to this woman? She's letting me stay here, and now you've let her son die." 21 Elijah stretched himself out over the boy three times, while praying, " Lord God, bring this boy back to life!" 22 The Lord answered Elijah's prayer, and the boy started breathing again. 23 Elijah picked him up and carried him downstairs. He gave the boy to his mother and said, "Look, your son is alive." 24 "You are God's prophet!" the woman replied. "Now I know that you really do speak for the Lord ."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he said unto her, give me thy son, and he took him out of her bosom,.... Where she had laid him, mourning over him; from thence the prophet took him with her leave:
and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed; an upper room, which was his bedchamber; hither he carried him, that he might be alone, and use the greater freedom both in his expressions and gestures.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Into a loft - Rather, âinto the upper chamber;â often the best apartment in an Eastern house.
