'Ascended' in the Bible
No one has ascended into heaven, but He who descended from heaven: the Son of Man.
Jesus *said to her, “Stop clinging to Me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I ascend to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.’”
For it was not David who ascended into heaven, but he himself says:‘The Lord said to my Lord,“Sit at My right hand,
And fixing his gaze on him and being much alarmed, he said, “What is it, Lord?” And he said to him, “Your prayers and alms have ascended as a memorial before God.
Therefore it says,“When He ascended on high,He led captive a host of captives,And He gave gifts to men.”
(Now this expression, “He ascended,” what does it mean except that He also had descended into the lower parts of the earth?
He who descended is Himself also He who ascended far above all the heavens, so that He might fill all things.)
