23:47 Now when the centurion ¹  saw what had happened, he praised God and said, “Certainly this man was innocent!” ²  23:48 And all the crowds that had assembled for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, returned home beating their breasts. ³  23:49 And all those who knew Jesus ⁴  stood at a distance, and the women who had followed him from Galilee saw ⁵  these things.

23:50 Now ⁶  there was a man named Joseph who was a member of the council, ⁷  a good and righteous man. 23:51 (He ⁸  had not consented ⁹  to their plan and action.) He ¹⁰  was from the Judean town ¹¹  of Arimathea, and was looking forward to ¹²  the kingdom of God. ¹³  23:52 He went to Pilate and asked for the body ¹⁴  of Jesus. 23:53 Then ¹⁵  he took it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth, ¹⁶  and placed it ¹⁷  in a tomb cut out of the rock, ¹⁸  where no one had yet been buried. ¹⁹  23:54 It was the day of preparation ²⁰  and the Sabbath was beginning. ²¹  23:55 The ²²  women who had accompanied Jesus ²³  from Galilee followed, and they saw the tomb and how his body was laid in it. 23:56 Then ²⁴  they returned and prepared aromatic spices ²⁵  and perfumes. ²⁶ 

On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment. ²⁷
