This article uses narrative criticism and a study of the word neaniskos in Greek culture to argue that the Gethsemanic young man and the young man in Jesus’ open tomb are linked by comedy. It demonstrates that the naked young man pericope utilizes comic imitation and the word neaniskos to connote comic behavior. With the naked young man as a model, the article proceeds to show that the speech of the messenger in the open tomb is comedy vis-à-vis the narrative of the context. This interpretation has the advantages of explaining the ill-fitting interruption of the naked young man scene in Gethsemane, of making sense of the abrupt ending of the Gospel of Mark, and of fitting the use of the word neaniskos in the Gospel of Mark to a connotation used in classical and Hellenistic Greek culture.

本文使用叙事批评和对希腊文化中的neaniskos一词的研究来论证，客西马尼年轻人与耶稣敞口墓中的年轻人是由喜剧联系在一起的。它表明，赤裸裸的年轻人pericope利用喜剧模仿和neaniskos这个词来暗示喜剧行为。文章以裸露的年轻人为榜样，继续表明信使在露天墓穴中的讲话相对于背景叙事是喜剧的。这种解释的优点是，可以解释客西马尼岛赤裸的年轻人场景的不适合的打断，使马可福音的结尾突然变得有意义，并适合使用neaniskos这个词。 在《马可福音》中提到了古典和希腊文化的内涵。
