The Burial of Jesus
50 There(A) was a good and righteous man named Joseph, a member of the Sanhedrin, 51 who had not agreed with their plan(B) and action. He was from Arimathea, a Judean town, and was looking forward to the kingdom of God.(C) 52 He approached Pilate and asked for Jesus’s body. 53 Taking it down, he wrapped it in fine linen and placed it in a tomb cut into the rock, where no one had ever been placed.[a](D) 54 It was the preparation day, and the Sabbath was about to begin.[b] 55 The women(E) who had come with him from Galilee followed along and observed the tomb and how his body was placed. 56 Then they returned and prepared spices and perfumes.(F) And they rested on the Sabbath according to the commandment.(G)

Jesus Is Buried
50 And behold, a man named[a] Joseph, who was a member of the council,[b] a good[c] and righteous man 51 (this man was not consenting to their plan and deed), from Arimathea, a Judean town,[d] who was looking forward to the kingdom of God. 52 This man approached Pilate and[e] asked for the body of Jesus. 53 And he took it[f] down and[g] wrapped it in a linen cloth and placed him in a tomb cut into the rock where no one had ever been placed. 54 And it was the day of preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near. 55 And the women who had been accompanying him from Galilee followed and[h] saw the tomb and how his body was placed. 56 And they returned and[i] prepared fragrant spices and perfumes, and on the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
