Towards sunset there came a wealthy inhabitant of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who himself also had become a disciple of Jesus.
He went to Pilate and begged to have the body of Jesus, and Pilate ordered it to be given to him.
When John's disciples heard of it, they came and took away his body and laid it in a tomb.
and when they had carried out everything which had been written about Him, they took Him down from the cross and laid Him in a tomb.
