emtv - John:19:38-42

emtv@John:19:38 @ After these things[,] Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took away the body of Jesus.

emtv@John:19:39 @ And Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.

emtv@John:19:40 @ Then they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen strips with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.

emtv@John:19:41 @ Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been buried.

emtv@John:19:42 @ So there they laid Jesus, because of the Jews' Preparation Day, because the tomb was near.
