	Luke's Eutychus and Homer's Elpenor: Acts 20:7-12 and Odyssey 10-12 - Dennis R. MacDonald
		Elpenor, the youngest of Odysseus's crew, asleep on a roof, fell to his death in the middle of the night.

		This correlates with Elpenor's sailing with Odysseus from Troy to Achaea.

	Odysseus and Jesus Visit Hades
		We had with us a certain youth named Elpenor, not very remarkable for sense or courage....[who] tumbled right off the roof and broke his neck, and his soul went down to the house of Hades.
		This fact will be crucial later in understanding why Homer's tale of Elpenor's descent to Hades evolved in oral tradition to one in which Elpenor is spirited off to Hades naked, and why Mark put a naked young man in his story.
		Thus, although Homer doesn't describe Elpenor as naked when he "went down to the house of Hades," it is reasonable to suppose that the Homeric tale evolved into an oral tradition in which Elpenor's naked ghost sails off to Hades after his fall.

		First to approach is Elpenor, one of Odysseus’; men who died just before the crew left Circe’s home.
		Elpenor had spent the last night in a drunken stupor on Circe’s roofs, breaking his neck as he fell off when he arose at dawn.

		Odysseus has sacrificed the two rams that lie at his feet to honor Elpenor and to keep the other spirits in Hades from tormenting him.
