22 His parents said these things because they were in fear+ of the Jews, for the Jews had already come to an agreement that, if anyone confessed him as Christ, he should get expelled from the synagogue.*+

42 All the same, many even of the rulers actually put faith in him,+ but because of the Pharisees they would not confess [him], in order not to be expelled from the synagogue;*+

38 Now after these things Joseph from Ar·i·ma·theʹa, who was a disciple of Jesus but a secret one out of [his] fear of the Jews,+ requested Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him permission.+ Therefore he came and took his body away.+
