Mark 14:52

52 and he lefte his lynnen and fleed from them naked.

Mark 14:52 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:52

And he left the linen cloth
"In their hands", so the Persic version renders it; just as Joseph left his garment in the hands of his mistress, ( Genesis 39:12 ) ;

and fled from them naked;
to the house from whence he came. The Syriac, Arabic, Persic, and Ethiopic versions, leave out the words "from them".
