## Resource

Two formerly secret disciples of Christ emerge just at the right time to provide the most respectable burial for the body of their Lord - and, of course, one that also fulfilled Old Testament prophecy. If Jesus was not buried in a rich man's tomb, He would not have qualified to be Messiah (see Isaiah 53:9)! Again, we find the amazing providence of Almighty God at work in such specific ways that ensure His Son was buried as the royal Prince He is, but also to fulfill His prophetic word! There is so much "meat" found in this study on Christ' burial (the method, the strip wrappings, the 100-pound mixture of costly spices, the head "napkin"), but here is just one truth to whet your hunger: Wealthy, wise men (Magi) lavished their expensive gifts on Christ early in His life. Wealthy, wise men (Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus) lavished their rich gifts upon Him at the end of His life! Though "the world" rejected Him, nonetheless, He was and IS THE KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS.
