and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock, and having rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, went away. And Mary the Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre. And on the next day, that following the day of the preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees came together to Pilate, saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I rise. Command therefore that the sepulchre be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come and steal him away, and say to the people, He hath risen from the dead; and the last error will be worse than the first. Pilate said to them, Ye have a guard; go, make it as secure as ye know how. And they went, and made the sepulchre secure, sealing the stone, and setting the guard.

The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies might not remain upon the cross on the sabbath, for that sabbath was a great day, besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with him. But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was already dead, they broke not his legs; read more.
but one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and immediately there came out blood and water. And he that hath seen hath borne witness, and his witness is true; and he knoweth that he saith what is true, that ye also may believe. For these things came to pass, that the scripture might be fulfilled, "A bone of him shall not be broken." And again another scripture saith, "They shall look on him whom they pierced." And after this, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but concealing it for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave. They came therefore and took him away. Nicodemus also, he who at the first went to him by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds weight. Then they took the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the manner of the Jews in preparing for burial. Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. There then, on account of the Jews preparationday, they laid Jesus; for the tomb was at hand.
