Luke 23:50-56

New Matthew Bible

⁵⁰ And there was a man named Joseph, a member of the council, and he was a good man and just. ⁵¹ He had not consented to their counsel and deed. He was from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, and he was also waiting for the kingdom of God. ⁵² He went to Pilate and requested the body of Jesus, ⁵³ and took it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid it in a tomb hewn out in stone, in which no man had ever before been laid. ⁵⁴ And that day was the day of preparation; and the Sabbath drew on.

⁵⁵ The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee followed after, and saw the sepulchre and how his body was laid. ⁵⁶ And they returned and prepared spices and oyntments, but rested on the Sabbath day according to the commandment.
