* After this , Joseph , the Arimathean , who was a disciple of Jesus , but a concealed disciple for fear of the Jews , asked permission of Pilate to take away the body of Jesus . * Nicodemus also , who had formerly repaired to Jesus by night , came , and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes , weighing about a hundred pounds . * These men took the body of Jesus , and wound it in linen rollers , with the spices , which is the Jewish manner of embalming . * Now , in the place where he was crucified , there was a garden , and in the garden a new tomb , wherein no one had ever yet been laid . * There they deposited Jesus , on account of the Jewish preparation , the tomb being near .
