42 ^aAnd when evening had come, since it was ^bthe day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathea, ^ca respected member of the council, who ^dwas also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 44 Pilate was surprised to hear that he should have already died. ^{▼▼Or Pilate wondered whether he had already died} And summoning ^fthe centurion, he asked him whether he was already dead. 45 And when he learned from ^gthe centurion that he was dead, he granted the corpse to Joseph. 46 And Joseph ^{▼▼Greek he} bought ⁱa linen shroud, and taking him down, wrapped him in the linen shroud and ^jlaid him in a tomb ^kthat had been cut out of the rock. And he rolled ^la stone against the entrance of the tomb. 47 ^mMary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was laid.

Mark 16:1

The Resurrection

1 ⁿ, ^oWhen the Sabbath was past, ^pMary Magdalene, ^qMary the mother of James, and ^rSalome ^sbought spices, so that they might go and anoint him.

Luke 23:53-56

53 Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud and ^tlaid him in a tomb cut in stone, ^uwhere no one had ever yet been laid. 54 It was the day of ^vPreparation, and the Sabbath was beginning. ^{▼▼Greek was dawning} 55 ^xThe women ^ywho had come with him from Galilee followed and saw the tomb and how his body was laid. 56 Then they returned and ^zprepared spices and ointments.

On the Sabbath they rested ^aaaccording to the commandment.

Luke 24:1-3

The Resurrection

1 ^abBut on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, ^actaking the spices they had prepared. 2 And they found ^adthe stone rolled away from the tomb, 3 but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

John 12:7

7 Jesus said, “Leave her alone, so that she may keep it ^{▼▼Or Leave her alone; she intended to keep it} for the day of my burial.

John 19:32-42

32 So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other ^afwho had been crucified with him. 33 But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 34 But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once there came out ^agblood and water. 35 ^ahHe who saw it has borne witness— ^aihis testimony is true, and he knows that he is telling the truth— ^ajthat you also may believe. 36 ^akFor these things took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled: ^al“Not one of his bones ^amwill be broken.” 37 And again another Scripture says, ^an“They will look on him whom they have pierced.”

Jesus Is Buried

38 ^aoAfter these things Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly ^apfor fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took away his body. 39 ^aqNicodemus also, who earlier had come to Jesus ^{▼▼Greek him} by night, came ^asbringing a mixture of ^atmyrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds ^{▼▼Greek one hundred litras; a litra (or Roman pound) was equal to about 11 1/2 ounces or 327 grams} in weight. 40 So they took the body of Jesus and ^avbound it in ^awlinen cloths with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews. 41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a ^axgarden, and ^ayin the garden a new tomb ^azin which no one had yet been laid. 42 So because of the Jewish ^baday of Preparation, ^bbsince the tomb was close at hand, they laid Jesus there.
