There was a garden near the place where Jesus had been crucified, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had ever been laid. Here, because of its being Preparation Day, and as the tomb was near by, they placed Jesus.
and when he learned the fact from the army captain he gave the body to Joseph. So Joseph bought him a sheet, and took Jesus down, wound him in the sheet, and laid him in a tomb which had been hewn out of a rock, and then rolled a stone against the opening of the tomb; and Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses were watching to see where he was laid.
Then taking it down, he wrapped it in linen, and placed it in a tomb hewn in the rock, where no man has ever been laid. And it was the day of preparation and the Sabbath was near at hand. Then the women who had accompanied him out of Galilee followed after, and noted the tomb, and how his body was placed. Then they returned and prepared spices and perfumes.
So Joseph took the body, and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut in the rock; and after rolling a great stone against the opening of the tomb, he went away.

And he came into the Temple, led by the Spirit. and when his parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law, he took him up in his arms and blessed God and said, "Now lettest thou thy slave depart, O Master; according to thy word in peace, "Because my eyes had seen the salvation, "Which thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples; "A light for the unveiling of the Gentiles And the glory of thy people Israel." And while his father and mother were marveling at the words that were spoken concerning him, Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother. "Behold this child is set for the falling and rising up of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against. Yea, and a sword shall pierce through your own soul also, that the thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed." There was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was advanced in age, having lived with her husband seven years, after her girlhood, and then being a widow even for fourscore and four years. She departed not from the temple, but worshiped with the fasting and prayer, night and day. She came up at that very hour, and gave thanks to God, and spoke of the child to all who were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem. As soon as all that the law required had been done, they returned to Galilee to their own town, Nazareth.
