Historical Commentaries

Scholarly Analysis and Interpretation.

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?

Where wilt thou that we make ready? On the preparation for the Passover, see notes on Matthew 26:17-19.
A large upper room furnished. The upper room was usually the guest chamber.
