Jesus Is Buried

50 ^aNow there was a man named Joseph, from the Jewish town of Arimathea. He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man, 51 who had not consented to their decision and action; and he ^bwas looking for the kingdom of God. 52 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 53 Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud and ^claid him in a tomb cut in stone, ^dwhere no one had ever yet been laid. 54 It was the day of ^ePreparation, and the Sabbath was beginning. ^{▼▼Greek was dawning} 55 ^gThe women ^hwho had come with him from Galilee followed and saw the tomb and how his body was laid. 56 Then they returned and ⁱprepared spices and ointments.

On the Sabbath they rested ^jaccording to the commandment.
