A disciple of Jesus named Joseph, a rich man from Arimathea, went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Pilate commanded that it be given to him. Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth. read more.
He laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut out of the rock. Then he rolled a great stone in front of the door of the tomb, and departed. Mary Magdalene was near the tomb. The other Mary was also there. It was morning, the day after Preparation. The chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together with Pilate. They said: Sir, we remember while he was yet alive, the deceiver said, 'After three days I will rise again.' Command the tomb be secured until the third day. Otherwise his disciples could come and steal him away. They could say to the people. 'He is risen from the dead.' The last deception will be worse than the first. Pilate said to them: You have a guard; make it as secure as you can. So they made the tomb secure. They sealed the stone and placed a guard there.

Evening arrived. It was the Preparation Day (Exodus 16:22-27), the day before the Sabbath. Joseph of Arimathaea was a prominent council member who also was looking for the Kingdom of God. He boldly approached Pilate and asked for Jesus' body. Pilate wondered if he were already dead. So he summoned the centurion and asked him about the death. read more.
When the centurion confirmed it he granted the body to Joseph. He bought a linen cloth, and taking him down, wound him in the linen cloth. Then he laid him in a tomb that had been cut out of a rock. He rolled a stone against the door of the tomb. Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Joses, saw where he was laid.

It was Preparation and the Jews insisted that bodies not remain on the stake on the Sabbath. The day of that Sabbath was a high day. They asked Pilate that the legs be broken and that they might be taken away. The soldiers broke the legs of the two who were impaled with him. When they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already so they did not break his legs. read more.
The soldier with the spear pierced his side and suddenly blood and water came out. He who saw testified and his testimony is true. He knows and he speaks truth that you also may believe. These things came to pass in order that the scripture might be fulfilled: A bone of him shall not be broken. And again another scripture said: They should look on him whom they pierced. Joseph of Arimathaea was a disciple of Jesus. He approached Pilate secretly for fear of the Jews. He asked Pilate for permission to take away the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission. So he took the body away. Nicodemus also came with a mixture of myrrh and about a hundred pounds of aloes. Nicodemus is the one who came to Jesus at night. They prepared the body of Jesus for burial. They bound it in linen cloths with spices. This was the custom of the Jews. There was a garden at the place where he was impaled. It contained a new tomb where no one had been buried. They laid Jesus there because the Jews Preparation was close at hand.
