Matthew 27:57-60 (ESV Strong's)
57 When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who also was a disciple of Jesus. 58 He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given to him. 59 And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen shroud 60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut in the rock. And he rolled a great stone to the entrance of the tomb and went away.
Jesus takes our place in the tomb of eternal death. If we trust in Christ, we leave the grave for the life found in the cleft of the Rock of Ages. God has passed our way and has protected us until we see Him face to face.
There is no one richer than the disciple who will inherit the riches of heaven.
