Acts 1:9 (NIV) says "After He [Jesus] said this, He was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid Him from their sight." This is called the Ascension.

Where does Luke's Gospel mention the ascension of Jesus?

A:Luke 24:51 says that Jesus was parted from them and taken up to heaven on the evening of the day of his resurrection. This contrasts with Acts, by the same author but written some time afterwards, where Jesus was taken up to heaven forty days after his resurrection.


How many days does Jesus stay on earth after his resurrection?

A:The author of Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles is the author of the notion that Jesus was taken up bodily to heaven. Luke 24:51 says that Jesus was taken up bodily to heaven on the evening of his resurrection. Acts 1:9, written some time later, says that Jesus was taken bodily to heaven forty days after the resurrection.The other three gospels said nothing of Jesus physically leaving earth and rising up to heaven. However, the 'Long Ending' of Mark (verses 16:9-20), added long after the Gospel was written, was more or less written around Luke's ending, so that verse 16:19 says that he was taken up bodily to heaven, apparently on the evening of his resurrection. (Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8.)


Did Jesus leave heaven?

Apart from the author of Luke's Gospel, the other evangelists seem unaware that Jesus ascended bodily into heaven. Arguably, Luke is the most influential gospel in the New Testament, and it says that Jesus rose bodily into heaven near Bethany, on the evening of his resurrection. Acts of the Apostles, by the same author but somewhat later, changes the detail, saying that the risen Jesus remained on earth for forty days before he was taken up into heaven.For non-Christians, no, Jesus did not really rise up into heaven.

How long was Christ on earth after his resurrection?

Only Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles tell us how long Jesus was on earth after his resurrection:Luke 24:50-51 tells us that Jesus led the disciples out towards Bethany on the evening of his resurrection, and was taken bodily up into heaven. In this case, he was on earth less than one day after his resurrection. He commanded the disciples to remain in Jerusalem until they had received the power from on high.Acts 1:1-9, by the same author but written some time after Luke's Gospel, tells us that the risen Jesus was on earth for forty days and was seen by many. Jesus commanded the disciples to remain in Jerusalem until they had received the the power of the Holy Spirit, and was then taken bodily up into heaven.

Only Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles tell us about Jesus ascending to heaven. In Luke's Gospel, Jesus ascended bodily to heaven near Bethany, on the evening of his resurrection (Luke 24:50-51).
