PEOPLE OF THE BIBLE JOSEPH - DISCIPLE OF JESUS MAT 27:57 When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple: MAT 27:58 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered. MAT 27:59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, MAT 27:60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed. MAR 15:42 And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, MAR 15:43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus. MAR 15:44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead. MAR 15:45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. MAR 15:46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre. MAR 15:47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid. LUK 23:50 And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a good man, and a just: LUK 23:51 (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God. LUK 23:52 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. LUK 23:53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid. LUK 23:54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on. LUK 23:55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid. LUK 23:56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment. JOH 19:38 And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus. JOH 19:39 And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight. JOH 19:40 Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury. JOH 19:41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid. JOH 19:42 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand. ============================== THE LECTRONIC IBRARY ECHANGE P.O.
