Mark 14:52

52 And he left the linen clothing, and flew naked away from them. [And the linen cloth forsaken, he naked fled away from them.]

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".

Mark 14:52 In-Context

51 But a young man [Soothly some young man], clothed with linen cloth on the bare, followed him; and they held him.

52 And he left the linen clothing, and flew naked away from them. [And the linen cloth forsaken, he naked fled away from them.]

53 And they led Jesus to the highest priest. And all the priests and scribes and elder men came together [And all came together into one, the priests and the scribes and elder men].

54 But Peter followed him afar [till] into the hall of the highest priest. And he sat with the servants, and warmed him(self) at the fire.
