Burial of Jesus

John 19:38-42

After this, Yosef of Ramatayim, who was a talmid of Yeshua, but a secret one out of fear of the Judeans, asked Pilate if he could have Yeshua’s body. Pilate gave his consent, so Yosef came and took the body away.

Also Nakdimon, who at first had gone to see Yeshua by night, came with some seventy pounds of spices — a mixture of myrrh and aloes.

They took Yeshua’s body and wrapped it up in linen sheets with the spices, in keeping with Judean burial practice.

In the vicinity of where he had been executed was a garden, and in the garden was a new tomb in which no one had ever been buried.

So, because it was Preparation Day for the Judeans, and because the tomb was close by, that is where they buried Yeshua.
