bwe - Luke:23:50-56

bwe@Luke:23:50 @ There was a man named Joseph. He was a member of the court. He was a good man who lived the right way.

bwe@Luke:23:51 @ He had not wanted the people to do what they did. He was looking for the kingdom of God. He was from a town of the Jews, called Arimathea.

bwe@Luke:23:52 @ He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

bwe@Luke:23:53 @ He took the body down from the cross. He wrapped it in a linen cloth and laid it in a grave cut in a rock. No one had ever been put in this grave.

bwe@Luke:23:54 @ It was the day before the Sabbath. And it was almost time for the Sabbath to begin.

bwe@Luke:23:55 @ Some women had come with Jesus from Galilee. They followed and saw the grave where his body was put.

bwe@Luke:23:56 @ Then they went back and got things ready to put on his body. These things were spices that smelled very nice, and sweet kinds of oil. On the Sabbath day they rested as the law said they should.
