Contextual Overview
7 On Sunday we all met together to eat the Lord's Supper. Paul talked to the group. Because he was planning to leave the next day, he continued talking until midnight. 8 We were all together in a room upstairs, and there were many lights in the room. 9 There was a young man named Eutychus sitting in the window. Paul continued talking, and Eutychus became very, very sleepy. Finally, he went to sleep and fell out of the window. He fell to the ground from the third floor. When the people went down and lifted him up, he was dead. 10 Paul went down to where Eutychus was, knelt down beside him, and put his arms around him. He said to the other believers, "Don't worry. He is alive now." 11 Then Paul went upstairs again, broke off some pieces of bread and ate. He spoke to them a long time. It was early morning when he finished, and then he left. 12 The Lord's followers took Eutychus home alive, and they were all greatly comforted.

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.
