"Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the Council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus." -Mark 15:43
Interesting wording here...that Joseph "took courage." I imagine it required a lot of courage and humility to be in a position of honor publicly, yet be willing to step out and honor Christ when he was most forsaken by men.
