Matthew 27:64 in Context — Matthew 27
62 Le lendemain, qui était le jour après la préparation, les principaux sacrificateurs et les pharisiens allèrent ensemble auprès de Pilate,
63 et dirent: Seigneur, nous nous souvenons que cet imposteur a dit, quand il vivait encore: Après trois jours je ressusciterai.
64 Ordonne donc que le sépulcre soit gardé jusqu’au troisième jour, afin que ses disciples ne viennent pas dérober le corps, et dire au peuple: Il est ressuscité des morts. Cette dernière imposture serait pire que la première.
65 Pilate leur dit: Vous avez une garde; allez, gardez-le comme vous l’entendrez.
66 Ils s’en allèrent, et s’assurèrent du sépulcre au moyen de la garde, après avoir scellé la pierre.
