This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Granted the corpse (edōrēsato to ptōma). This official information was necessary before the burial. As a matter of fact Pilate was probably glad to turn the body over to Joseph else the body would go to the potter’s field. This is the only instance when ptōma (cadaver, corpse) is applied to the body (sōma) of Jesus, the term used in Mat 27:59; Luk 23:53; Joh 19:40).
