John 19:39-42 ▼

39 Nicodemus, the man who had first come to Jesus at night, also arrived, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes weighing about 100 litra.

40 They took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in linen cloths along with spices, according to the burial custom of the Jews.

41 A garden was located in the place where he was crucified, and in that garden was a new tomb in which no one had yet been placed.

42 Because it was the Jewish Preparation Day, and because the tomb was nearby, they put Jesus there.
