Who was the Mysterious young man who fled naked from the Garden of Gethsemane?
***************************************************************************************************************************************
ANSWER: MARK himself
"A young man, wearing nothing but a linen garment, was following Jesus. When they seized him, he fled naked, leaving his garment behind. "- Mark 14:51-52
This event occurred in the Garden of Gethsemane the night Jesus was betrayed and captured. When he was seized by the Roman soldiers, he escaped capture and ran, leaving the garment behind. The identity of the man is unknown, but since the Gospel of Mark is the only gospel that mentions the incident, many Bible scholars speculate that the young man was Mark himself, the author of the Gospel of Mark.
