Good morning and welcome to Chapel City Church! As we worship together this morning, we pray that your faith is strengthened, and that you find encouragement and conviction as we study God’s Word together. As we open up Matthew’s gospel once again, we come to the narrative of the burial of Jesus Christ. It’s a portion of the story that we tend to read over quickly. Perhaps there’s the temptation to see this as nothing but filler material between the cross and the resurrection. But what do we learn from the burial of Jesus? Why does it matter who was there and who wasn’t there? How do we see God’s faithfulness, even in these details?
And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen shroud and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut in the rock. And he rolled a great stone to the entrance of the tomb and went away.
Matthew 27:59-60
