Mark 15:37-47

37 But Jesus let out a loud cry and breathed His last.

38 Then the curtain of the sanctuary^[a] was split in two from top to bottom.

39 When the centurion, who was standing opposite Him, saw the way He^[b] breathed His last, he said, "This man really was God's Son!"^[c]

40 There were also women looking on from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome.

41 When He was in Galilee, they would follow Him and help Him. Many other women had come up with Him to Jerusalem.

The Burial of Jesus

42 When it was already evening, because it was preparation day (that is, the day before the Sabbath),

43 Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent member of the Sanhedrin who was himself looking forward to the kingdom of God, came and boldly went in to Pilate and asked for Jesus' body.

44 Pilate was surprised that He was already dead. Summoning the centurion, he asked him whether He had already died.

45 When he found out from the centurion, he gave the corpse to Joseph.

46 After he bought some fine linen, he took Him down and wrapped Him in the linen. Then he placed Him in a tomb cut out of the rock, and rolled a stone against the entrance to the tomb.

47 Now Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses were watching where He was placed.
