Contextual Overview

7 Now the day of the unleavened bread a came, - on which it was needful to be sacrificing the passover. 8 And he sent forth Peter and John, saying - Go, and make ready, for us, the passover, that we may eat. 9 And, they, said unto him - Where wiliest thou, we should make ready? 10 And, he, said unto them - Lo! when ye have entered into the city, there will meet you a man, bearing, an earthen-jar of water: follow him into the house into which he is entering. 11 And ye shall say unto the master of the house - The teacher saith unto thee, where is the lodging, where, the passover, with my disciples, I may eat? 12 And, he, unto you, will shew, a large upper room, spread: there, make ready. 13 And, departing, they found according as he had said unto them, and made ready the passover. 14 And, when the hour arrived, he reclined, and the apostles with him. 15 And he said unto them - I have greatly desired, to eat, this passover, with you before I suffer; 16 For, I say unto you - In nowise shall I eat it, until it have been fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they said unto him, where wilt thou that we prepare?] Meaning, not in what village, town, or city, for it was a fixed and determined thing, that the passover should be eaten at Jerusalem, and nowhere else; see Deuteronomy 16:2, but in what house in Jerusalem?

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
