²⁹ When they had carried out all that was written about him,^(A) they took him down from the cross^(B) and laid him in a tomb.^(C)

⁵³ Then he took it down, wrapped it in linen cloth and placed it in a tomb cut in the rock, one in which no one had yet been laid.

³⁰ When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.”^(A) With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

The Death of Jesus^(A)

²⁸ Later, knowing that everything had now been finished,^(B) and so that Scripture would be fulfilled,^(C) Jesus said, “I am thirsty.”

⁴ that he was buried,^(A) that he was raised^(B) on the third day^(C) according to the Scriptures,^(D)

³⁰ The God of our ancestors^(A) raised Jesus from the dead^(B)—whom you killed by hanging him on a cross.^(C)

³⁶ These things happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled:^(A) “Not one of his bones will be broken,”^{[a](B) 37} and, as another scripture says, “They will look on the one they have pierced.”^[b](C)

The Burial of Jesus^(D)

³⁸ Later, Joseph of Arimathea asked Pilate for the body of Jesus. Now Joseph was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly because he feared the Jewish leaders.^(E) With Pilate’s permission, he came and took the body away. ³⁹ He was accompanied by Nicodemus,^(F) the man who earlier had visited Jesus at night. Nicodemus brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.^{[c] 40} Taking Jesus’ body, the two of them wrapped it, with the spices, in strips of linen.^(G) This was in accordance with Jewish burial customs.^{(H) 41} At the place where Jesus was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. ⁴² Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation^(I) and since the tomb was nearby,^(J) they laid Jesus there.

⁴⁴ He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you:^(A) Everything must be fulfilled^(B) that is written about me in the Law of Moses,^(C) the Prophets^(D) and the Psalms.”^(E)

⁴⁵ When he learned from the centurion^(A) that it was so, he gave the body to Joseph. ⁴⁶ So Joseph bought some linen cloth, took down the body, wrapped it in the linen, and placed it in a tomb cut out of rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.^(B)
