015:037 But Jesus uttered a loud cry and yielded up His spirit. 015:038 And the curtain in the Sanctuary was torn in two, from top to bottom. 015:039 And when the Centurion who stood in front of the cross saw that He was dead, he exclaimed, "This man was indeed God's Son." 015:040 There were also a party of women looking on from a distance; among them being both Mary of Magdala and Mary the mother of James the Little and of Joses, and Salome-- 015:041 all of whom in the Galilaean days had habitually been with Him and cared for Him, as well as many other women who had come up to Jerusalem with Him. 015:042 Towards sunset, as it was the Preparation--that is, the day preceding the Sabbath-- 015:043 Joseph of Arimathaea came, a highly respected member of the Council, who himself also was living in expectation of the Kingdom of God. He summoned up courage to go in to see Pilate and beg for the body of Jesus. 015:044 But Pilate could hardly believe that He was already dead. He called, however, for the Centurion and inquired whether He had been long dead; 015:045 and having ascertained the fact he granted the body to Joseph. 015:046 He, having bought a sheet of linen, took Him down, wrapped Him in the sheet and laid Him in a tomb hewn in the rock; after which he rolled a stone against the entrance to the tomb. 015:047 Mary of Magdala and Mary the mother of Joses were looking on to see where He was put. 016:001 When the Sabbath was over, Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, in order to come and anoint His body. |
