Context: Mat 27:62 Next day, that is, after the day of Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered before Pilate
Mat 27:63 and said, “Sir, we remember how that impostor said, while he was still alive, ‘After three days I will rise again.’
Mat 27:64 Therefore order the sepulchre to be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples go and steal him away, and tell the people, ‘He has risen from the dead,’ and the last fraud will be worse than the first.”
Mat 27:65 Pilate said to them, “You have a guard of soldiers; go, make it as secure as you can.”
Mat 27:66 So they went and made the sepulchre secure by sealing the stone and setting a guard.
