Luke 23:53 in context

The verses around it, from Luke 23.

49 But all those who knew Jesus, including the women who had followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching these things.

50 Now there was a Council member named Joseph, a good and righteous man,

51 who had not consented to their decision or action. He was from the Judean town of Arimathea, and was waiting for the kingdom of God.

52 He went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus.

53 Then he took it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth, and placed it in a tomb cut into the rock, where no one had yet been laid.

54 It was Preparation Day, and the Sabbath was beginning.

55 The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee followed, and they saw the tomb and how His body was placed.

56 Then they returned to prepare spices and perfumes. And they rested on the Sabbath, according to the commandment.
