The Gospels tell us that Joseph of Arimethea was granted permission to take the body of Jesus off the cross and he laid him in a tomb that he owned. Mary, the mother of Jesus and Mary Magdeline also saw Jesus when He was first laid in the tomb. They did not complete the task of preparing the body due to fact that the Sabbath had begun. They had to waite until early Sunday morning but by then Christ had already risen.
