Mark 8:37

Context
8:37 What can a person give in exchange for his life?

Mark 14:52

Context
14:52 but he ran off naked, 1  leaving his linen cloth behind.

1 sn The statement he ran off naked is probably a reference to Mark himself, traditionally assumed to be the author of this Gospel. Why he was wearing only an outer garment and not the customary tunic as well is not mentioned. W. L. Lane, Mark (NICNT), 527-28, says that Mark probably mentioned this episode so as to make it clear that “all fled, leaving Jesus alone in the custody of the police.”
