On l’ensevelit dans les chambres funéraires qu’il s’était creusées dans la Cité de David, on le déposa sur la couche qui avait été garnie d’aromates et de parfums, préparés selon l’art des parfumeurs; et l’on alluma en son honneur un très grand bûcher.
Mishnah Avodah Zarah
These are the festivities of the idolaters: Kalenda, Saturnalia, Kratesis, the anniversary of accession to the throne and birthdays and anniversaries of deaths, according to Rabbi Meir. But the Sages say: a death at which burning [of articles of the dead] takes place is attended by idolatry, but where there is not such burning there is no idolatry. But the day of shaving ones beard and lock of hair, or the day of landing after a sea voyage, or the day of release from prison, or if an idolater holds a banquet for his son the prohibition only applies to that day and that particular person.
