⁴⁰There were also women looking on from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome,^{* 41}who followed him when he was in Galilee and ministered to him, and there were many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem.^*

The Burial of Jesus

⁴²When evening had come, and since it was the day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath,^{* 43}Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the council who was also himself waiting expectantly for the kingdom of God, went boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.^{* 44}Then Pilate wondered if he were already dead, and summoning the centurion he asked him whether he had been dead for some time. ⁴⁵When he learned from the centurion that he was dead, he granted the body to Joseph.^{* 46}Then Joseph^h bought a linen cloth and, taking down the body,ⁱ wrapped it in the linen cloth and laid it in a tomb that had been hewn out of rock. He then rolled a stone against the door of the tomb. ⁴⁷Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where the body^j was laid.
