Acts 20:11 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 20:11

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 ) .
