Pilate said to them, &#8220;Take<n id="1" /> a guard of soldiers. Go and make it as secure as you can.&#8221;

So<n id="1" /> they went with the soldiers<n id="2" /> of the guard and made the tomb secure by sealing the stone.p>

So give orders to secure the tomb until the third day. Otherwise his disciples may come and steal his body<n id="1" /> and say to the people, &#8216;He has been raised from the dead,&#8217; and the last deception will be worse than the first.&#8221;
