And a suitable day came when Herod, on his birthday, gave a banquet for his courtiers and military tribunes and the most prominent [men] of Galilee.

And when the military officer in charge of one hundred men, who was standing in front of Jesus, saw Him die like that, he said, "Truly this man was the Son of God."

Pilate was amazed that Jesus had already died, and calling the military officer to him, asked how long He had been dead.

And when he found out from the military officer, he granted the body to Joseph.
