Purport
Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī points out that since Lord Kṛṣṇa had turned Sudāmā’s home into a heavenly abode, everyone living there now possessed beautiful bodies and attire appropriate to the residents of heaven. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī adds this insight: The night before, Sudāmā’s poor, emaciated wife had been sleeping in rags under a crumbling roof, but when she woke in the morning she found herself and her house wonderfully changed. Only for a moment was she confused; she then realized that this opulence was the Lord’s gift to her husband, who must be on his way home. Thus she prepared to greet him.
Purport (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
His wife had fallen asleep at night with withered breasts and body, and ragged clothing, in the house with broken walls and roof. Waking up in the morning and finding her body and house transformed in this way, she was struck with astonishment for a moment, and then concluded that all this wealth had been given by Krsna. Then she went out to meet her husband.
Purport (Jiva Goswami)
Hearing from the servants sent on the road, she then came to meet him. She was like Lakṣmī or Rukmiṇī in beauty. She came out of the house which was like Vaikuṇṭha.
