38 After all of this, Yosef from Arimathea went to Pilate. (Yosef was a follower of Yeshua, but secretly because he was afraid of what the Jewish leaders might do.) He asked Pilate for permission to remove Yeshua’s body, and it was granted to him so they went and got his body. 39 [ref]Nicodemus (the one who had first visited Yeshua at night) also came, bringing around 30kg of burial spices. 40 So they took Yeshua’s body and wrapped it around with linen strips with the spices as per the Jewish burial customs. 41 There was a garden out at the place where Yeshua had been executed, and in the garden there was a new tomb that hadn’t been used yet. 42 So because it was the preparation day and because the tomb was nearby, they laid his body in there.
