His Burial proved.
And first, I shall prove by several Scriptures that he was buried, and so pass on. First therefore see that place, Matt. 27. v. 57. and so forward. After that Jesus the Son of God had been crucified a while, he gave up the Ghost; that is, he died; and after he had been a while dead, Joseph of Arimathea went in to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave consent thereto. And Joseph took the bod• of Jesus, & wrapped it in clean linen, and laid it (viz.) the body of Jesus in his own Tomb, and rolled a stone upon the mouth of the Sepulchre, and departed, Matth. 27. 57, 58, 59, 60. Also in Luke 24 51, 52, 53 The Apostle Paul also teacheth so much, 1 Cor. 15. 3, 4. where he ⟨p. 100⟩saith, For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ di•d for our sins according to the Scriptures. And that he was buried. Again, in Acts •3 29. the Apostle speaking there of Jesus Christ, saith, And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a Sepulchre. And so much touching the burial of Jesus Christ the son of God.
