JOSEPH OF ARIMATHEA AND NICODEMUS

John 19

Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus were both afraid to be seen with Jesus. They would only come to him under the cover of darkness to hear him.

When Jesus died on the cross, Joseph went to Pilate to ask for the body. Nicodemus carried 75 lbs of myrrh, aloe, spices and linens. And, they hurried to bury Jesus before sundown.
