59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
61 And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.
62 Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,
63 Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
64 Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.
65 Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.

43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.
44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.
45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.
46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre.

52 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.
54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.
55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.
56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.
john 19:38-42john 19:38-42
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV

39 And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.
40 Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.
41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.
42 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.
It is difficult to pin point the exact time and day due to our lack of knowledge of the old Hebrew laws concerning the three great feasts of the Lord and to understand that their days start (some 6 hrs before our own) and their day starts from sunset to sunset, instead of from midnight to midnight
To understand all this that the first day of each of these feasts, Passover, Pentecost, and tabernacles, was “a holy convocation”, a “Sabbath” on which no servile work was to be done. See Lev. 23:7, 24, 35. Exodus 12:16Exodus 12:16
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV
16 And in the first day there shall be an holy convocation, and in the seventh day there shall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be done of you. man: Heb. soul
“The Sabbath” and the “high day” of john 19:31john 19:31
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV
31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
, was the “holy convocation” the first day of the feast, which quite overshadowed the ordinary weekly Sabbath
It was called by the Jews “yom tov” (==good day ) and this is the greeting on that day throughout Jewry down to the present time.
Therefore Wednesday, Nisan 14th (commencing on the Tuesday at sunset) was “the preparation day” on which the crucifixion took place: for all four gospels definitely say that this was the day on which the Lord was buried (before our Wednesday sunset) “because it was the preparation [day] the body should not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day “for that Sabbath day was a high day “and therefore not the ordinary seventh day, or weekly Sabbath.
Therefore the Lord being crucified on “the preparation day ” could not have eaten of the Passover lamb, which was not slain until the evening of the 14th of nisan (i.e. afternoon) on that day the daily sacrifice was killed at the 6th hour (noon) and offered about the 7th hour (1pm) the killing of the Passover lambs began directly afterwards . thus it is clear, that if the killing of the lamb did not commence until about four hours after our Lord had been hanging upon the cross, and would not have been concluded at the ninth hour (3pm) when he gave up the ghost; No “Passover lamb” could have been eaten at the “last supper” on the previous evening.
Thefore the Lord was crucified on our Wednesday; was buried on that day before sunset; and remained “three days and three nights” in the tomb, as foretold by him in Matt. 12:40; rising from the dead on “the third day,” “the first day of the week”
The fixed days and dates, at either end hold the whole period as in a vice and place the whole subject of the passion of Christ on a sure foundation
Amen
