43 Joseph of Arimathea, a highly respected member of the Council, who was waiting for the kingdom of God, went boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
44 Pilate was amazed to hear that Jesus had already died, so he summoned the centurion to ask him if he was in fact dead.
45 When he learned from the centurion that he was dead, he let Joseph have the corpse.
46 Joseph bought some linen cloth, took the body down, wrapped it in the cloth, laid it in a tomb that had been cut out of the rock, and rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.
