Paragraph 3. JESUS CHRIST WAS BURIED

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

627
Christ’s death was a real death in that it put an end to his earthly human
existence. But because of the union his body retained with the person of the
Son, his was not a mortal corpse like others, for “divine power preserved Christ’s
body from corruption.”⁴⁷⁰ Both of these statements can be said of
Christ: “He was cut off out of the land of the living”,⁴⁷¹
and “My flesh will dwell in hope. For you will not abandon my soul to
Hades, nor let your Holy One see corruption.”⁴⁷² Jesus’
Resurrection “on the third day” was the proof of this, for bodily
decay was held to begin on the fourth day after death.⁴⁷³
