42
And now when the evening was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,
43
Joseph of Arimathaea, a noble senator, who also waited for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly unto Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
44
And Pilate marvelled that he was already dead; and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he was already dead.
45
And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.
46
And he bought fine linen and took him down and wrapped him in the linen and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre.
47
And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.
