Jesus Buried in Joseph’s Tomb

38 aAfter this, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, bfor fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took the body of Jesus.  
39 And aNicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came, bringing a mixture of bmyrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.  
40 Then they took the body of Jesus, and abound it in strips of linen with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.  
41 Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.
42 So athere they laid Jesus, bbecause of the Jews’ Preparation Day, for the tomb was nearby.
