56. Amongst them were Miriam Magdalene, Miriam the mother of Jacob and Yosi, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
57. When evening had come, a rich man from Arimathaea, named Joseph, who himself was also Yeshua’s disciple came.
58. This man went to Pilate, and asked for Yeshua’s body. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given up.
59. Joseph took the body, and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60. and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut out in the rock, and he rolled a great stone against the door of the tomb, and departed.
61. Miriam Magdalene was there, and the other Miriam, sitting opposite the tomb.
62. Now on the next day, which was the day after the Preparation Day, the chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together to Pilate,
63. saying, “Sir, we remember what that deceiver said while he was still alive: ‘After three days I will rise again.’
64. Command therefore that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest perhaps his disciples come at night and steal him away, and tell the people, ‘He is risen from the dead;’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.”
65. Pilate said to them, “You have a guard. Go, make it as secure as you can.”
66. So they went with the guard and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone.
