Contextual Overview

7 And the first day of unleavened bread was come, when the passover was to be killed. 8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat it. 9 And they said to him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? 10 And he said to them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, a man will meet you bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth. 11 And say to the master of the house, The master saith to thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? 12 And he will shew you a large upper-room furnished: there make ready. 13 And they went, and found as he had said to them. And they made ready the passover. 14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. 15 And he said to them, With desire have I desired to eat this passover with you, before I suffer. 16 For I say to you, I will not eat thereof any more, till it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he shall show you a large upper room furnished,.... With all things necessary, to eat and drink out of, at the passover;

there make ready. The Ethiopic version adds, "for us", as in

Mark 14:15. The Persic version renders it, "there prepare a place"; but this was prepared already; the words design the preparation of the passover, and every thing proper for it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
