Matthew 27:62-66 King James Version (KJV)
62 Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,
63 Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
64 Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.
65 Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.
66 So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.

62 Now the next day, that following the Day of the Preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,
63 saying, “Sir, we remember that that deceiver said while he was yet alive, ‘After three days I will rise again.’
64 Command therefore that the sepulcher be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night and steal him away, and say unto the people, ‘He is risen from the dead,’ so that the last error shall be worse than the first.”
65 Pilate said unto them, “Ye have a watch. Go your way, make it as secure as ye can.”
66 So they went and made the sepulcher secure, sealing the stone and setting up a watch.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
62 The Pharisees had so much influence that while most people couldn’t go before Pilate, they could. The day of preparation is the day before the Sabbath. Do we have influence in this world? Better question is who influences us Jesus or the world?
63 They refer to Jesus as the deceiver, they had not faith but they are acting out of fear, Jesus would rise and their religion and works wasn’t going to stop God’s grace and work.
64 The disciples had no reason to do this, they scattered feeling defeated and without hope, they didn’t do what they did for the people but for Jesus but because the Pharisees were concerned more with the people then God they thought everyone else was that way as well. If Jesus stayed in the grave it wouldn’t have mattered what the disciples did the faith would have in time went away.
65 Philate does this because he wants to be done with the whole situation. Are we watching and looking to Jesus?
66 For anyone to break in would be treason against Pilate and would result in their execution. Jesus would break the seal from the inside so the disciples could come in.
