40 There were also ^ewomen looking on ^ffrom a distance, among whom were ^gMary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and ⁱSalome. 41 When he was in Galilee, they followed him and ^gministered to him, and there were also many other women who ^jcame up with him to Jerusalem.

Jesus Is Buried

42 ^kAnd when evening had come, since it was ^lthe day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathea, ^ma respected member of the council, who ⁿwas also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 44 Pilate was surprised to hear that he should have already died.¹ And summoning ^othe centurion, he asked him whether he was already dead. 45 And when he learned from ^othe centurion that he was dead, he granted the corpse to Joseph. 46 And Joseph² bought ^pa linen shroud, and taking him down, wrapped him in the linen shroud and ^qlaid him in a tomb ^rthat had been cut out of the rock. And he rolled ^sa stone against the entrance of the tomb. 47 ^tMary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was laid.

Women Accompanying Jesus

1 Soon afterward he went on ⁿthrough cities and villages, proclaiming and ^obringing the good news of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him, 2 and also ^psome women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: ^qMary, called Magdalene, ^rfrom whom seven demons had gone out, 3 and ^sJoanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod’s household manager, and Susanna, and many others, who provided for them¹ out of their means.

The Resurrection

1 ^eNow on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that ^fthe stone had been taken away from the tomb. 2 So she ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, ^gthe one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and ^hwe do not know where they have laid him.” 3 ⁱSo Peter went out with the other disciple, and they were going toward the tomb. 4 Both of them were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. 5 And stooping to look in, he saw ^jthe linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in. 6 Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there, 7 and ^kthe face cloth, which had been on Jesus’¹ head, not lying with the linen cloths but folded up in a place by itself. 8 Then the other disciple, ^lwho had reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed; 9 for as yet ^mthey did not understand the Scripture, ⁿthat he must rise from the dead. 10 Then the disciples went back to their homes.
