Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 37. - Fell sick for was sick, A.V.; and when they had washed her for whom when they had washed, A.V. For the phrase in those days, comp. Acts 6:1. The days here meant are those while Peter was in those parts. An upper chamber (ὑπερώον), as in Acts 1:13. The upper chamber was much more private and quiet than a room on the ground floor (see 2 Kings 4:10, 11).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(37) They laid her in an upper chamber.--This implies some little delay in the usual rapidity of Eastern funerals. As Lydda was only nine miles from Joppa, the report of 'neas's recovery might well have travelled from the one city to the other, and led to the hope that the power which St. Peter had thus put forth might extend even to the farther work of raising from the dead.
