OET-LV This man having_approached to_ the _Pilatos, requested the body of_ the _Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa).

OET (OET-RV) He went in to see Pilate and requested Yeshua’s body,

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 23:50–56: Jesus was buried

This section tells about how people buried Jesus’ body. Sometimes the Romans did not allow the body of a crucified person to be buried.Nolland (p. 1166) says, “The bodies of condemned criminals were not always released for burial, especially in cases of treason….For the body to have stayed on the cross overnight would have been a violation of Jewish custom (for the most part, the Romans seem to have shown a sensitivity to this).” But for the Jews, a proper burial was important. It was their custom to bury the body on the same day that a person died. A respected Jewish man named Joseph decided that Jesus must have a proper burial. So Joseph went to Pilate and asked permission to take Jesus’ body and bury it.

The Sabbath Day began just a few hours after Jesus died. On the Sabbath it was forbidden to move a dead body. So Joseph had to act quickly in all that he did.

Examples of other headings for this section are:

The Burial of Jesus (GNT)

Jesus Is Buried (CEV)

Joseph buried Jesus’ body

Jesus’ corpse was placed in a burial cave

Parallel passages for this section are found in Matthew 27:57–61, Mark 15:42–47, and John 19:38–42.

23:52a

He went to Pilate

23:52b

to ask for the body of Jesus.

23:52a–b

He went to Pilate: The phrase He went to Pilate indicates that Joseph went to Governor Pilate to make a formal request. He did this after Jesus had died. Connect this request to 23:51 in a natural way in your language. In some languages it may be helpful to use a time phrase. For example:

After Jesus died, Joseph went to Governor Pilate

Introduce Joseph’s request in a natural way in your language.

to ask for the body of Jesus: The clause to ask for the body of Jesus indicates that Joseph asked Pilate for permission to take Jesus’ body down from the cross so that he could bury it. Another way to translate this is:

he begged/requested Pilate to allow him to take Jesus’ corpse and bury it

The context indicates that Pilate gave him that permission. In some languages it may be necessary to make that explicit. For example:

he asked Governor Pilate to allow him to bury Jesus’ body. Pilate agreed

In some languages it may be more natural to use direct speech. For example:

he said to Pilate, “Please allow me to take Jesus’ body and bury it.” Pilate said, “You may do that.”

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὗτος

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Οὗτος προσελθών τῷ Πιλάτῳ ᾐτήσατο τό σῶμα τοῦ Ἰησοῦ)

This one implicitly means Joseph. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that it was Joseph who went to Pilate by using his name, as UST does, or by saying “this man.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὗτος, προσελθὼν τῷ Πειλάτῳ, ᾐτήσατο τὸ σῶμα τοῦ Ἰησοῦ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Οὗτος προσελθών τῷ Πιλάτῳ ᾐτήσατο τό σῶμα τοῦ Ἰησοῦ)

The implication is that Joseph requested the body of Jesus so that he could give it a proper burial. Ordinarily, to make crucifixion as gruesome a death as possible, the Romans left the dead bodies of people who had been crucified on the crosses to be eaten by wild animals, and they then burned whatever remained in the Valley of Hinnom where, as a note to [12:5](../12/05.md) explains, refuse was thrown and fires burned continually. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain why Joseph asked for Jesus’ body. You could also specify that Pilate gave Joseph permission to bury Jesus, as UST does. Alternate translation: [This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus so that he could bury it]
