it was the west gate and the gate of Shallecheth on the ascending highway for Shuppim and Hosah.There were guards stationed at every watch.

Then He said, “I assure you: You will see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”

Then what if you were to observe the Son of Man ascending to where He was before?

“Don’t cling to Me,” Jesus told her, “for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to My brothers and tell them that I am ascending to My Father and your Father—to My God and your God.”
