Contextual Overview
7On the first day of the week we came together to break bread. Since Paul was ready to leave the next day, he talked to them and kept on speaking until midnight. 8Now there were many lamps in the upper room where we were gathered. 9And a certain young man named Eutychus, seated by the window, was sinking into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. When he was sound asleep, he fell from the third story and was picked up dead. 10But Paul went down, threw himself on the young man, and embraced him. "Do not be alarmed!" he said. "He is still alive!" 11Then Paul went back upstairs, broke bread, and ate. After speaking until daybreak, he departed.12And the people were greatly relieved to take the boy home alive.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
When he therefore was come up again,.... Into the upper room, where he was before, and where the disciples were gathered together:
and had broken bread and eaten; administered the Lord's supper, and also eat for his bodily refreshment:
and talked a long while: about the ordinance and the doctrines of the Gospel, and spiritual experience, and such like divine things:
even till break of day; not knowing when to leave off:
so he departed; without taking any rest; though before he departed, what follows was done; it was at this time he left his cloak, books, and parchments here, 2 Timothy 4:13.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Come up again - To the upper room, Acts 20:8.
And had broken bread, and eaten - Had taken refreshment. As this is spoken of Paul only, it is evidently distinguished from the celebration of the Lordâs Supper.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Acts 20:11. Had broken bread — Had taken some refreshment, in order to their journey.
And talked a long while — ομιληÏαÏ, Having familiarly conversed, for this is the import of the word, which is very different from the διελεγεÏο, of the seventh verse, and the Î´Î¹Î±Î»ÎµÎ³Î¿Î¼ÎµÎ½Î¿Ï , of the ninth; which imply solemn, grave discourse.
