A Textual Commentary On Mark 14:51
(a) At the Paschal supper John occupied the place of honour. Jesus and His disciples were seated, according to the Oriental fashion, reclining or leaning on couches. John was next to Jesus, and leant upon His breast. Hence he is known in the writings of the Fathers by the title o επιστήθιος. Tradition relates that John was that young man who followed Jesus at Gethsemane, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body (Mark xiv. 50, 51). Thus Chrysostom and Ambrose say that this young man was John. Jerome, on the other hand, thinks that he was James the brother of John. All such suppositions are plainly erroneous. John was with Christ in the garden, and had risen with Him from table. “How some persons,” observes Calvin, “have come to dream that it was John, I know not ; nor is it of any importance to inquire.”
