Matthew 27:56-66

56 among them being Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zabdi.
57 Towards sunset there came a wealthy inhabitant of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who himself also had become a disciple of Jesus.
58 He went to Pilate and begged to have the body of Jesus, and Pilate ordered it to be given to him.
59 So Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean sheet of fine linen.
60 He then laid it in his own new tomb which he had hewn in the solid rock, and after rolling a great stone against the door of the tomb he went home.
61 Mary of Magdala and the other Mary were both present there, sitting opposite to the sepulchre.
62 On the next day, the day after the Preparation, the High Priests and the Pharisees came in a body to Pilate.
63 "Sir," they said, "we recollect that during his lifetime that impostor pretended that after two days he was to rise to life again.
64 So give orders for the sepulchre to be securely guarded till the third day, for fear his disciples should come by night and steal the body, and then tell the people that he has come back to life; and so the last imposture will be more serious than the first."
65 "You can have a guard," said Pilate: "go and make all safe, as best you can."
66 So they went and made the sepulchre secure, sealing the stone besides setting the guard.
