Acts 9:37

But it happened in those days that she became sick and died. When they had washed her, they laid her in an upper room.

1. We do not know the cause, but she became sick, and in a short time had died.

2. Her body was washed, prepared for burial, and laid in an upper room. Remember that upper rooms were often large areas for meetings and banquets.

3. Many would want to honor her before the burial.
