UST42-43 42-43When evening was near, a man named Joseph from a town called Arimathea came there. He was a member of the Jewish council, one whom everyone respected. He was also one of those who had been waiting expectantly for the time when God would send his king to begin to rule. He knew that, according to Jewish law, a body must be buried on the day the person died. He also realized that it was the Day of Preparation, the day when people prepared things for the Jewish day of rest, and that the Jewish day of rest would start when the sun set. Evening was now approaching. Courageously, he went to Pilate and asked his permission to take the body of Jesus down from the cross and bury it immediately.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

15:43-45 Joseph of Arimathea (possibly from the village of Ramathaim, twenty miles northwest of Jerusalem) was an honored member of the high council and a secret disciple of Jesus who was waiting for the Kingdom of God to come (see Matt 27:57; Luke 23:50-51; John 19:38). He courageously requested the body of Jesus from Pilate for burial. Since he was a member of the high council and was not known to be Jesus’ disciple, it served Rome’s purposes to grant his request: It would satisfy Jewish concerns about leaving the dead exposed after sunset (Deut 21:22-23), and Jesus’ disciples would not receive the body.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-participants

ἐλθὼν Ἰωσὴφ ὁ ἀπὸ Ἁριμαθαίας, εὐσχήμων βουλευτής, ὃς καὶ αὐτὸς ἦν προσδεχόμενος τὴν Βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ; τολμήσας, εἰσῆλθεν

/having/_come Joseph ¬which from Arimathea /a/_prominent Council_member who also himself was waiting_for the Kingdom ¬the ˱of˲_God /having/_taken_courage came_in

Here Mark introduces Joseph as a new participant in the story. If your language has its own way of introducing new participants, you could use it here in your translation. Alternate translation: “a man from Arimathea came. He was named Joseph, and he was a respected member of the council who also himself was waiting for the kingdom of God. Having dared, he entered in”

Note 2 topic: translate-names

Ἰωσὴφ ὁ ἀπὸ Ἁριμαθαίας

Joseph ¬which from Arimathea

The word Joseph is the name of a man, and the word Arimathea is the name of the city he was from.

Note 3 topic: writing-background

εὐσχήμων βουλευτής

/a/_prominent Council_member

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, you could use an indefinite subject. Alternate translation: “an honorable member of the council” or “a member of the council whom others thought highly of,”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns

ὃς καὶ αὐτὸς ἦν

who also himself was

Mark uses the word himself to emphasize that Joseph was one of the people who was waiting for the kingdom of God. Use a way that is natural in your language to indicate this emphasis. Alternate translation: “who, he too, was” or “who indeed also was”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἐλθὼν

/having/_come

In a context such as this, your language might say “gone” instead of come. Alternate translation: “having gone”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ᾐτήσατο τὸ σῶμα τοῦ Ἰησοῦ

requested the body ¬the ˱of˲_Jesus

The reason that Joseph asked Pilate for the body of Jesus was so that he could bury it. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “asked for the body of Jesus so that he could bury it”
