G2501I–Ἰωσήφ–Iōsēph

Towards sunset there came a wealthy inhabitant of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who himself also had become a disciple of Jesus.

Ἰωσήφ, Iōsēph “Joseph,”

So Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean sheet of fine linen.

Ἰωσὴφ Iōsēph “Joseph”

Joseph of Arimathaea came, a highly respected member of the Council, who himself also was living in expectation of the Kingdom of God. He summoned up courage to go in to see Pilate and beg for the body of Jesus.

Ἰωσὴφ Iōsēph “Joseph”

and having ascertained the fact he granted the body to Joseph.

Ἰωσήφ. Iōsēph “to Joseph.”

There was a member of the Council of the name of Joseph, a kind-hearted and upright man,

Ἰωσὴφ Iōsēph “Joseph”

After this, Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but for fear of the Jews a secret disciple, asked Pilate's permission to carry away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and removed the body.
