36These things were done so that the Scripture should be fulfilled, “Not one of His bones shall be broken.”
37Another Scripture says, “They will look on Him who they pierced.”
38After this, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate if he could take the body of Jesus away; and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took the body of Jesus.
39Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came, bringing about a hundred Roman pounds of a mixture of myrrh and aloes.
40So they took the body of Jesus, and wrapped it in strips of linen with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews.
