The Tomb is Secured

Matthew 27:62-66

Next day, after the preparation, the head cohanim and the P'rushim went together to Pilate

and said, "Sir, we remember that that deceiver said while he was still alive, `After three days I will be raised.'

Therefore, order that the grave be made secure till the third day; otherwise the talmidim may come, steal him away and say to the people, `He was raised from the dead'; and the last deception will be worse than the first."

Pilate said to them, "You may have your guard. Go and make the grave as secure as you know how."

So they went and made the grave secure by sealing the stone and putting the guard on watch.
