57 That evening a rich man named Joseph, a follower of Jesus from the town of Arimathea, came to Jerusalem.
58 Joseph went to Pilate and asked to have Jesus’ body. So Pilate gave orders for the soldiers to give it to Joseph.
59 Then Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth.
60 He put Jesus’ body in a new tomb that he had cut out of a wall of rock, and he rolled a very large stone to block the entrance of the tomb. Then Joseph went away.
61 Mary Magdalene and the other woman named Mary were sitting near the tomb.
62 The next day, the day after Preparation Day, the leading priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate.
63 They said, “Sir, we remember that while that liar was still alive he said, ‘After three days I will rise from the dead.’
