Mark 14:15

15 He will show you a spacious second-story room, swept and ready. Prepare for us there."

Mark 14:15 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:15

And he will show you a large upper room
A room in the highest part of the house, large enough for such a company, for thirteen persons, which was the number of Christ and his disciples:

furnished and prepared;
with a table, and a sufficient number of couches to sit, or lie upon, and with all proper vessels necessary on such an occasion:

there make ready for us;
the passover.

Mark 14:15 In-Context

13 He directed two of his disciples, "Go into the city. A man carrying a water jug will meet you. Follow him.
14 Ask the owner of whichever house he enters, 'The Teacher wants to know, Where is my guest room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples?'
15 He will show you a spacious second-story room, swept and ready. Prepare for us there."
16 The disciples left, came to the city, found everything just as he had told them, and prepared the Passover meal.
17 After sunset he came with the Twelve.
