The Ascension

¹⁹ So the Lord Jesus, after speaking to them,^(A) was taken up into heaven^(B) and sat down at the right hand^(C) of God.

¹⁷ ‘Don’t cling to me,’ Jesus told her, ‘since I have not yet ascended^(A) to the Father.^(B) But go to my brothers^(C) and tell them that I am ascending to my Father^(D) and your Father, to my God^(E) and your God.’

The Ascension

⁹ After he had said this, he was taken up as they were watching, and a cloud took him out of their sight. ¹⁰ While he was going, they were gazing into heaven, and suddenly two men in white clothes stood by them.^{(A) 11} They said, ‘Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking up into heaven? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come in the same way that you have seen him going into heaven.’^(B)
