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, “into the upper chamber;” often the best apartment in an Eastern house.
