Luke 23:49-55

49But Jesus’ friends, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching.

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

51but he had not agreed with the decision and actions of the other religious leaders. He was from the town of Arimathea in Judea, and he was waiting for the Kingdom of God to come.

52He went to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body.

53Then he took the body down from the cross and wrapped it in a long sheet of linen cloth and laid it in a new tomb that had been carved out of rock.

54This was done late on Friday afternoon, the day of preparation, as the Sabbath was about to begin.

55As his body was taken away, the women from Galilee followed and saw the tomb where his body was placed.
