I will praise the LORD!

The Burial of Jesus
Now there was a man named Joseph,
a member of the Council,
a good and upright man,
who had not consented to their decision and action.
He came from the Judean town of Arimathea,
and he himself was waiting for the kingdom of God.
Going to Pilate,
he asked for Jesus’ body.
Then he took it down,
wrapped it in linen cloth
and placed it in a tomb cut in the rock,
one in which no one had yet been laid.
It was Preparation Day,
and the Sabbath was about to begin.
The women
who had come with Jesus from Galilee
followed Joseph and saw the tomb
and how his body was laid in it.
Then they went home
and prepared spices and perfumes.
But they rested on the Sabbath
in obedience to the commandment. *
