Joseph of Arimathea is remembered today for one thing, really. He took care that Jesus had a place to be buried. He gave his own tomb. No question about it.
Joseph took the body
I mean the Body
Jesus the Christ
Sarx and soma
Flesh and spirit.
The Arimathean
Used proper oils and spices,
Saw to the proper burial
Behind a proper stone.
No real question about it
For those who saw
For those who knew
So He could rise again
Improper.
Always and blessedly
Improper.
