'Ascended' in the Bible

No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven -- the Son of Man.

Jesus replied, "Do not touch me, for I have not yet ascended to my Father. Go to my brothers and tell them, 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'"

Therefore it says, "When he ascended on high he captured captives; he gave gifts to men."

Now what is the meaning of "he ascended," except that he also descended to the lower regions, namely, the earth?

He, the very one who descended, is also the one who ascended above all the heavens, in order to fill all things.

The smoke coming from the incense, along with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God from the angel's hand.
