Luke 23:39–56

39 kThen one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed Him, saying, 1“If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us.”

40 But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done lnothing wrong.” 42 Then he said 2to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.”

43 And Jesus said to him, Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in mParadise.”

44 nNow it 3was about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. 45 Then the sun was 4darkened, and othe veil of the temple was torn in 5two. 46 And when Jesus had cried out with a loud voice, He said, Father, pinto Your hands I commit My spirit.’  qHaving said this, He breathed His last.

47 rSo when the centurion saw what had happened, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous Man!”

48 And the whole crowd who came together to that sight, seeing what had been done, beat their breasts and returned. 49 sBut all His acquaintances, and the women who followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.

Matt. 27:57–61; Mark 15:42–47; John 19:38–42

50 tNow behold, there was a man named Joseph, a council member, a good and just man. 51 He had not consented to their decision and deed. He was from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, uwho 6himself was also waiting for the kingdom of God. 52 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 53 vThen he took it down, wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a tomb that was hewn out of the rock, where no one had ever lain before. 54 That day was wthe Preparation, and the Sabbath drew near.

55 And the women xwho had come with Him from Galilee followed after, and ythey observed the tomb and how His body was laid.

In the Grave

56 Then they returned and zprepared spices and fragrant oils. And they rested on the Sabbath aaccording to the commandment.
