Matthew 27:62-66

The Tomb is Secured

Matthew 27:62-66

The Tomb is Secured

62
And the next day, which followed the day of preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees came together to Pilate,
63
Saying: Sir, we have remembered, that that seducer said, while he was yet alive: After three days I will rise again.
64
Command therefore the sepulchre to be guarded until the third day: lest perhaps his disciples come and steal him away and say to the people: He is risen from the dead. And the last error shall be worse than the first.
65
Pilate saith to them: You have a guard. Go, guard it as you know.
66
And they departing, made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone and setting guards.
