Luke 23:50-56 ▼

50 And behold, a man, by name Joseph, being a counselor, a man good and righteous,

51 from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who also himself was expecting the Kingdom of God, he was not consenting to their counsel and deed,

52 he having gone near to Pilate, asked for the body of Jesus,

53 and having taken it down, he wrapped it in fine linen, and placed it in a hewn out tomb, where no one was yet laid.

54 And it was [the] Day of Preparation, and Sabbath was approaching,

55 and the women who also have come with Him out of Galilee having followed after, beheld the tomb, and how His body was placed,

56 and having turned back, they made ready spices and ointments, and on the Sabbath, indeed, they rested, according to the command.
