Contextual Overview

50 There was a man named Joseph the counsellor of Arimathaea, a city of Judaea, a good and righteous man. 51 He did not agree with their wishes and their actions; and he waited for the kingdom of God. 52 He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 53 And he took it down and wrapped it in fine linen, and laid it in a hewn tomb, in which no one was ever laid. 54 This was a Friday, and the sabbath was approaching. 55 The women who had come with him from Galilee were near, and they saw the tomb, and how his body was laid. 56 And they returned and prepared spices and perfumes. And on the sabbath they rested, as it is commanded.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he took it down,.... From the cross, with the help of others, having obtained leave of Pilate so to do;

and wrapped it in linen; as was the custom of the Jews in burying their dead; :-.

and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone; cut out of a rock; :-.

wherein never man before was laid; so that it could not be said it was another body, and not that of Christ's, that was raised from the dead. This circumstance, serves to confirm the truth of his resurrection.
