'He Was Taken Up' in the Bible

Until the day he was taken up, after having thro' the Holy Ghost given commandment to the apostles, whom he had chosen:

And having spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up, and a cloud received him from their sight.

Beginning from the baptism of John, till the day that he was taken up from us, one must be ordained, to be a witness with us of his resurrection.
