Matthew 27:56–60 · Berean Standard Bible

56 Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.

57 When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea named Joseph, who himself was a disciple of Jesus.

58 He went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus, and Pilate ordered that it be given to him.

59 So Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

60 and placed it in his own new tomb that he had cut into the rock. Then he rolled a great stone across the entrance to the tomb and went away.
