Mat 27:60. Καινῷ, new) Which had not been polluted by any corruption; and also lest any of the ancient saints should be said to have risen instead of Him, or to have given Him the power of rising.-αὐτοῦ, his own) Jesus Christ, the leader and guide of life, was placed in the tomb of another.[1218]-τῇ θύρᾳ, the door) The sepulchre was not a narrow trench, but a crypt.-ἀπῆλθεν, he departed) Not hoping those things which soon were to come to pass.
[1218] Implying that the tomb was something alien and strange for Him, the Lord of Life, to be associated with. Therefore He had no tomb of His own.-ED.
