Exegesis
The object auton {αὐτόν | autón} “him” refers to Jesus and is carried through the sequence of actions, while the dative phrase tē sindoni {τῇ σινδόνι | tē̂ sindóni} specifies the material used in wrapping, the article marking the linen as a particular, known burial cloth.
In context — Mark 15:46
And after buying a linen cloth , he took Him down, wrapped Him in the linen cloth, and laid Him in a tomb that had been hewn out of rock; and he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.
