The canonical reference is in 2 Corinthians 12:2: "I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven."

The ancients believed that there were seven heavens, one above the other. For example, the apocryphal Ascension of Isaiahhad the Son descend into the lower world and then re-ascend to the seventh heaven. Modern belief has only one heaven.
