Mark 14:50 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:50

And they all forsook him and fled.
] That is, his disciples, as the Vulgate Latin, Syriac, Arabic, Persic, and Ethiopic versions read; and who seem to have transcribed it from Matthew, and lest it should be thought, that the multitude whom Christ addressed, were intended.

Mark 14:50 In-Context

48 Yeshua addressed them: "So you came out to take me with swords and clubs, the way you would the leader of a rebellion?
49 Every day I was with you in the Temple court, teaching, and you didn't seize me then! But let the Tanakh be fulfilled."
50 And they all deserted him and ran away.
51 There was one young man who did try to follow him; but he was wearing only a nightshirt; and when they tried to seize him,
52 he slipped out of the nightshirt and ran away naked.
