Scholarly Analysis and Interpretation.

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.
