Jesus Is Placed in a Tomb^(A)

³⁸ Later Joseph from the city of Arimathea asked Pilate to let him remove Yeshua’s body. (Joseph was a disciple of Yeshua but secretly because he was afraid of the Jews). Pilate gave him permission to remove Yeshua’s body. So Joseph removed it. ³⁹ Nicodemus, the one who had first come to Yeshua at night, went with Joseph and brought 75 pounds of a myrrh and aloe mixture.

⁴⁰ These two men took the body of Yeshua and bound it with strips of linen. They laced the strips with spices. This was the Jewish custom for burial.
