    The Sepulchre of Jesus

    So Joseph bought some linen cloth, took down the body, wrapped it in the linen, and placed it in a tomb cut out of rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.
    Mark 15:46,47  ESV

    It is believed Joseph of Arimathaea made this sepulchre for himself.

    ​

    ​There is evidence that the tomb was hurriedly extended to accommodate a taller body being about 5'11 (confirming with Matthew 28) because the Sabbath was approaching.

    ​Here is a close up of the sepulchre of Jesus showing the grave area to be cut out for Jesus body as Jesus was taller than Joseph of Arimathea.

    ​This was the normal practise, to cut out the tomb to fit the size of the person after there death. This is how we know the tomb was used.
