Jesus was laid in the tomb Joseph and Nicodemus laid the body in Josephs own new tomb. They rolled a large rock over the opening. They had to work very quickly because the Sabbath was starting. Mary Magdalene and Jesus mother Mary kept watch nearby. The next day, the priests and Pharisees went to the tomb and sealed the stone shut. "Otherwise his disciples may steal the body and say He has been raised from the dead," they told Pilate. On that Saturday, did Caiaphas, the council, and the people believe they had finally silenced Jesus? |
