John 19 : 38 - 41
38 | After this, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took the body of Jesus. |
39 | And Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds. |
40 | Then they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in strips of linen with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury. |
41 | Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid. |
