Some have speculated that the naked young man was Mark signing his narrative.

Crossan has one upped them by saying its just as possible--if just as unproveable--as having the woman who annoints Jesus (the theological heroinne of the gospel!) be the women signing her narrative.

Now the man in the tomb is signing his narrative?

None of these three theories can be backed by any evidence whatsoever. They are all guesses. Mark is 100% anonymous.

Mark had to go to the loo in the final scene of Seneca's Nazarenus and thus missed the ending? The naked bloke was a naughty bit in the play?
