Luke 23:50-56

Jesus Is Buried

50 y Now there was a man named Joseph, from the Jewish town of Arimathea. He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man, 51 who had not consented to their decision and action; and he z was looking for the kingdom of God. 52 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 53 Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud and a laid him in a tomb cut in stone, b where no one had ever yet been laid. 54 It was the day of c Preparation, and the Sabbath was beginning. 1 55 d The women e who had come with him from Galilee followed and saw the tomb and how his body was laid.

56 Then they returned and f prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested g according to the commandment.
