The Burial of Jesus
42 When(A) it was already evening, because it was the day of preparation (that is, the day before the Sabbath), 43 Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent member of the Sanhedrin who was himself looking forward(B) to the kingdom of God,(C) came and boldly went to Pilate(D) and asked for Jesus’s body.(E) 44 Pilate was surprised that he was already dead. Summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he had already died. 45 When he found out from the centurion, he gave the corpse to Joseph. 46 After he bought some linen cloth, Joseph took him down and wrapped him in the linen. Then he laid him in a tomb(F) cut out of the rock and rolled a stone(G) against the entrance to the tomb. 47 Mary Magdalene(H) and Mary the mother of Joses were watching where he was laid.
