Luke 23:49

Galilee
GriefFaithfulness and loyalty

47 When the centurion saw what had happened, he gave glory to God, saying, “Surely this was a righteous man.”

48 And when all the people who had gathered for this spectacle saw what had happened, they returned home beating their breasts.

But all those who knew Jesus, including the women who had followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching these things.

50 Now there was a Council member named Joseph, a good and righteous man,

51 who had not consented to their decision or action. He was from the Judean town of Arimathea, and was waiting for the kingdom of God.
