Luke 22:12

12 Then he will show you a large, furnished room upstairs. Prepare the Passover meal 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.

Luke 22:12 In-Context

10 Jesus said to them, "After you go into the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he enters,

11 and tell the owner of the house, 'The Teacher says: Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover meal with my followers?'

12 Then he will show you a large, furnished room upstairs. Prepare the Passover meal there."

13 So Peter and John left and found everything as Jesus had said. And they prepared the Passover meal.

14 When the time came, Jesus and the apostles were sitting at the table.
