Contextual Overview
7We all met together on Sunday morning for a time of worship and the Lord's Supper. Paul planned on heading out the next day, so he taught all day long and well into the night.
8There were a lot of oil lamps in the upstairs room where Paul was teaching.
9Sitting on the sill of an open window, a young cowpuncher named Eutychus began to nod off. He grew so tired that he fell asleep and then fell out of the third story window. He was dead when he hit the ground.
10Paul raced down the stairs and upon reaching the young cowpuncher, he threw himself on top of Eutychus and hugged him. Paul shouted, "Everything's going to be fine! He will live."
11Then they all went back upstairs and had the Lord's Supper. Paul continued to teach about Jesus until the sun came up and then he rode off.
12The folks who were there took the young cowpuncher home and he was fit as a fiddle; as were everyone else who had been there.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they brought the young man alive,.... Up into the upper room, and presented him alive to the disciples:
and were not a little comforted; that is, the disciples, at the sight of the young man, who was taken up dead, not only for his sake, but chiefly because by this miracle the Gospel, which the apostle preached, and who was about to depart from them, was greatly confirmed to them.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Not a little comforted - By the fact that he was alive; perhaps also strengthened by the evidence that a miracle had been performed.
