Jesus Is Buried

^42 (E)And when evening had already come, because it was ^[c](F)Preparation day, that is, the day before the Sabbath, ⁴³ Joseph of Arimathea came, a ^(G)prominent ^[d]Council member, who himself was ^(H)waiting for the kingdom of God; and he ^(I)gathered up courage and went in before Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. ⁴⁴ And Pilate wondered if He had died by this time, and summoning the centurion, he questioned him as to whether He already died. ⁴⁵ And ascertaining this from ^(J)the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph. ⁴⁶ And when Joseph had bought a linen cloth and took Him down, he wrapped Him in the linen cloth and laid Him in a tomb which had been hewn out in the rock. And he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb. ^47 (K)And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses were looking on to see where He had been laid.

^49 (A)And all His acquaintances and ^(B)the women who accompanied Him from Galilee were standing at a distance, watching these things.

²⁵ Therefore the soldiers did these things.

^(A)But standing by the cross of Jesus were ^(B)His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and ^(C)Mary Magdalene.
