Contextual Overview

7 The Day of Unleavened Bread came when the Passover lambs had to be sacrificed. 8 Jesus said to Peter and John, "Go and prepare the Passover meal for us to eat." 9 They asked, "Where do you want us to prepare it?" 10 Jesus said to them, "After you go into the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he enters, 11 and tell the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says: "Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover meal with my followers?"' 12 Then he will show you a large, furnished room upstairs. Prepare the Passover meal there." 13 So Peter and John left and found everything as Jesus had said. And they prepared the Passover meal. 14 When the time came, Jesus and the apostles were sitting at the table. 15 He said to them, "I wanted very much to eat this Passover meal with you before I suffer. 16 I will not eat another Passover meal until it is given its true meaning in the kingdom of God."

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
