  • John 19:38-42 : 38 After this, Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus but kept it secret because of fear of the Jews, asked Pilate for permission to take the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission, so he came and took the body. 39 Nicodemus, who had previously come to Jesus at night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds in weight. 40 Taking the body of Jesus, they wrapped it in linen cloths along with the spices, as is the Jewish burial custom. 41 Now, there was a garden in the place where Jesus was crucified, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had ever been laid. 42 Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.
