D Fact - And Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by
"And Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds" (Joh 19:39). "Then they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in strips of linen with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury" (Joh 19:40). Some researchers state that the TS [Shroud of Turin] body was buried with aromatics such as aloe and myrrh because they found their traces on the cloth (Baima Bollone 1983).
