87.  Jesus is buried

 

Joseph of Arimathea was a man of influence. He belonged to the council of Jews, but was also waiting for the dawning of God’s Kingdom. In the evening he went to Pilate and asked: Let me take the body of Jesus down from the cross and bury it. Pilate gave Joseph permission to bury Jesus’ body. Joseph bought linen, took the body of Jesus down from the cross, wrapped it in the linen and placed it in a tomb that had been dug out in the rock-face. Then he rolled a large stone in front of the entrance to the tomb. Two women, Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Joset, watched him and saw where he laid the body of Jesus to rest.

 

(Mk 15, 42-47)
