Luke 23:49-55

49And all those who knew Jesus stood at a distance, and the women who had followed him from Galilee saw these things.

50Now there was a man named Joseph who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man.

51(He had not consented to their plan and action.) He was from the Judean town of Arimathea, and was looking forward to the kingdom of God.

52He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

53Then he took it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth, and placed it in a tomb cut out of the rock, where no one had yet been buried.

54It was the day of preparation and the Sabbath was beginning.

55The women who had accompanied Jesus from Galilee followed, and they saw the tomb and how his body was laid in it.
