Joseph from Arimathea buries Jesus' body

⁵⁷ That evening a rich man who came from a town called Arimathea went to Pilate. The man's name was Joseph, and he had become a disciple of Jesus. ⁵⁸ Joseph asked Pilate for the dead body of Jesus. Pilate told his soldiers to give Jesus' body to Joseph. ⁵⁹ So Joseph took Jesus' body. He put a clean piece of linen cloth around it.
