Luke 23:50-56

Part 17 of 21

[50] Now there was a man named Joseph, from the Jewish town of Arimathea. He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man, [51] who had not consented to their decision and action; and he was looking for the kingdom of God. [52] This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. [53] Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud and laid him in a tomb cut in stone, where no one had ever yet been laid. [54] It was the day of Preparation, and the Sabbath was beginning. [55] The women who had come with him from Galilee followed and saw the tomb and how his body was laid. [56] Then they returned and prepared spices and ointments.
On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
(Luke 23:50-56 ESV)

17. King of the kingdom, slain by men,

Body now in the grave,

Can He bring hope if He is gone?

How can a dead man save?
