Mark 15:40–47

^40aThere were also some women looking on from a distance, among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of ¹James ^bthe ²Less and Joses, and ^cSalome.

⁴¹When He was in Galilee, they used to follow Him and ^1aminister to Him; and there were many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.

Jesus Is Buried

^42aWhen evening had already come, because it was ^bthe preparation day, that is, the day before the Sabbath,

⁴³Joseph of Arimathea came, a ^aprominent member of the Council, who himself was ^bwaiting for the kingdom of God; and he ^cgathered up courage and went in before Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.

⁴⁴Pilate wondered if He was dead by this time, and summoning the centurion, he questioned him as to whether He was already dead.

⁴⁵And ascertaining this from ^athe centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.

⁴⁶Joseph bought a linen cloth, took Him down, wrapped Him in the linen cloth and laid Him in a tomb which had been hewn out in the rock; and he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.

^47aMary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses were looking on to see where He was laid.
