The Third Commandment

And when evening had come, since it was the day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath, Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Pilate was surprised to hear that he should have already died. And summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he was already dead. And when he learned from the centurion that he was dead, he granted the corpse to Joseph. And Joseph bought a linen shroud, and taking him down, wrapped him in the linen shroud and laid him in a tomb that had been cut out of the rock. And he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb. Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was laid.

The Third Commandment
The Lord Jesus keeps every jot and tittle of the Law. We call this the obedience of Jesus. He keeps the Law and he receives the punishment we deserve for not keeping it ourselves.  He keeps the whole Law. Even as he taught the people of Israel that he was Lord of the Sabbath, he rests in the tomb on the Sabbath. He does this for you. Joseph of Arimathea takes care of his lifeless body, buries him in his own tomb, and rolls a stone against the entrance. But these things would not hold him. They could not keep him. The tomb, which the devil intended to be a prison, would not last. On the third day, he rises again. He lives. Having kept the Law for you, he rescues you from your sin and gives you the treasures of his win.
