Luke 23:50-56
Jesus' Burial
50Now there was a man named Joseph, a member of the Council, a good and upright man, 51who had not consented to their decision and action. He came from the Judean town of Arimathea and he was waiting for the kingdom of God. 52Going to Pilate, he asked for Jesus' body. 53Then he took it down, wrapped it in linen cloth and placed it in a tomb cut in the rock, one in which no one had yet been laid. 54It was Preparation Day, and the Sabbath was about to begin.
55The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee followed Joseph and saw the tomb and how his body was laid in it. 56Then they went home and prepared spices and perfumes. But they rested on the Sabbath in obedience to the commandment.
After Jesus died on (our) Good Friday, Joseph of Arimathea goes to Pilate and asks to bury Jesus...Joseph did the proper procedures on Jesus body and placed Him in a tomb, cut in the rock as His burial place...The women, who were followers of Jesus, followed Joseph to the tomb and watched as Joseph laid Jesus in the tomb...Then the followers of Jesus went home and rested on the Sabbath to be obedient to the commandment... This would have been a period of grieving for His followers...
