And now evening having come, seeing it was the preparation, that is, the fore-sabbath,
43
Joseph of Arimathea, an honourable counsellor, who also himself was waiting for the reign of God, came, boldly entered in unto Pilate, and asked the body of Jesus.
44
And Pilate wondered if he were already dead, and having called near the centurion, did question him if he were long dead,
45
and having known [it] from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.
46
And he, having brought fine linen, and having taken him down, wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre that had been hewn out of a rock, and he rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre,
47
and Mary the Magdalene, and Mary of Joses, were beholding where he is laid.
