40. So they took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in swaddling clothes with spices, as the Jews usually bury.

41. In the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden there was a new sepulchre, in which no one had yet been laid.

42. Jesus was laid there for the sake of the Friday of the Jews, because the tomb was near.
