And Pilate wondered if He were already dead. And calling the centurion, he asked him whether He had died already.
When Jesus heard, He marvelled and said to those who followed, Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel.
Joseph of Arimathea, an honorable counsellor, who also waited for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
And when he knew it from the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.
