And some of those who stood by, when they heard [it], said, Behold, he calls for Elias.
36
And one, running and filling a sponge with vinegar, fixed it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone, let us see if Elias comes to take him down.

And Jesus, having uttered a loud cry, expired.
38
And the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom.
39

And there were women also looking on from afar off, among whom were both Mary of Magdala, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;
41
who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him and ministered to him; and many others who came up with him to Jerusalem.
42

43
Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable councillor, who also himself was awaiting the kingdom of God, coming, emboldened himself and went in to Pilate and begged the body of Jesus.
44
And Pilate wondered if he were already dead; and having called to [him] the centurion, he inquired of him if he had long died.
45
And when he knew from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.
