Since it was the day of Preparation, in order to prevent the bodies from remaining on the cross on the sabbath (for that sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
32
So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who had been crucified with him;
33
but when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.
34
But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once there came out blood and water.
35
He who saw it has borne witness--his testimony is true, and he knows that he tells the truth--that you also may believe.
36
For these things took place that the scripture might be fulfilled, "Not a bone of him shall be broken."

And again another scripture says, "They shall look on him whom they have pierced."

After this Joseph of Arimathe'a, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and took away his body.

Nicode'mus also, who had at first come to him by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds' weight.

They took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews.
41
Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb where no one had ever been laid.
42
So because of the Jewish day of Preparation, as the tomb was close at hand, they laid Jesus there.
