Mark 15:43-46

Living_Oracles(i) 43 Joseph of Arimathea, an honorable senator, who himself also expected the Reign of God, taking courage, repaired to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. 44 Pilate, amazed that he was so soon dead, sent for the centurion, and asked him whether Jesus had been dead any time. 45 And being informed by the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph; 46 who having bought linen, and taking Jesus down, wrapped him in the linen; and laid him in a tomb, hewn out of the rock.
