And behold, there was a man named Joseph, etc.] (See Gill on “<402757>Matthew 27:57”). a counsellor; Mark says, he was an “honourable” one; he was either one of the council of the high priest, or a member of the great sanhedrim; (see Gill on “<411543>Mark 15:43”). and he was a good man, and a just; he was kind and beneficent in his temper, and just, and righteous in his life and actions; a like character is given of Joseph the husband of Mary, the mother of our Lord, (<400119>Matthew 1:19).
