but he ended up in a rich man’s tomb,
because he had committed no violent deeds,
nor had he spoken deceitfully.

Jesus’ Burial
27:57 Now when it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who was also a disciple of Jesus.
27:58 He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered that it be given to him.
27:59 Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
27:60 and placed it in his own new tomb that he had cut in the rock. Then he rolled a great stone across the entrance of the tomb and went away.
Mark 15:43-46
15:43 Joseph of Arimathea, a highly regarded member of the council,
who was himself looking forward to
the kingdom of God,
went boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
15:44 Pilate was surprised that he was already dead. He
called the centurion and asked him if he had been dead for some time.
15:45 When Pilate
was informed by the centurion,
he gave the body to Joseph.
15:46 After Joseph
bought a linen cloth
and took down the body, he wrapped it in the linen and placed it in a tomb cut out of the rock.
Then
he rolled a stone across the entrance
of the tomb.

Jesus’ Burial
23:50 Now there was a man named Joseph who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man.

23:52 He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
23:53 Then 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.
John 19:38-42
Jesus’ Burial
19:38 After this, Joseph of Arimathea, a disciple of Jesus (but secretly, because he feared the Jewish leaders), asked Pilate if he could remove the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission, so he went and took the body away.
19:39 Nicodemus, the man who had previously come to Jesus at night, accompanied Joseph, carrying a mixture of myrrh and aloes weighing about seventy-five pounds.
19:40 Then they took Jesus’ body and wrapped it, with the aromatic spices, in strips of linen cloth according to Jewish burial customs.
19:41 Now at the place where Jesus was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden was a new tomb where no one had yet been buried.
19:42 And so, because it was the Jewish day of preparation and the tomb was nearby, they placed Jesus’ body there.

13:29 When they had accomplished
everything that was written
about him, they took him down
from the cross
and placed him
in a tomb.

faith in the power
of God who raised him from the dead.
