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 "Am I leading a band of armed men against you?" asked Jesus. "Do you have to come out with swords and clubs to capture me?

49 Every day I was with you. I taught in the temple courtyard, and you didn't arrest me. But the Scriptures must come true."

50 Then everyone left him and ran away.

51 A young man was following Jesus. The man was wearing nothing but a piece of linen cloth. When the crowd grabbed him,

52 he ran away naked. He left his clothing behind.
