Barnes' Notes
Whom, when they had washed - Among most people it has been customary to wash the body before it is buried or burned. They prepared her in the usual manner for interment.
In an upper chamber - See the notes on Acts 1:13. There is no evidence that they expected that Peter would raise her up to life.
