Matthew 27:59-60
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.
Luke 23:53
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.
