Luke 22:12

12 "And he will show you a large, furnished upper room; prepare it there."

Luke 22:12 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 22:12

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.
