Event
The burial of Jesus
Before the Sabbath began, Joseph of Arimathea, a council member and disciple, asked Pilate for the body of Jesus. With Nicodemus he wrapped it in linen with spices and laid it in a new tomb cut into rock in a garden near the place of crucifixion. The women from Galilee saw where He was laid, and Matthew records that the tomb was sealed and guarded.

Connections around Isaiah 53:9

The burial of Jesus is read as fulfilling Isaiah 53:9
Historic Christian readingMedium confidence
Isaiah's servant is assigned a grave with the wicked and with a rich man in his death; Christians have long read Jesus' burial in the tomb of the rich Joseph of Arimathea as this. No New Testament text cites the verse for the burial, so it is labeled a historic reading.
Evidence:
- Isaiah 53:9
- Matthew 27:57-60
Other responsible views
- Servant song as a whole: The New Testament applies Isaiah 53 to Jesus explicitly (Luke 22:37, Acts 8:32-35, 1 Peter 2:22-25) without singling out verse 9 for the burial; some readers see the burial detail as part of that larger fulfillment rather than a separate one.
