In Mark 10:35-37, James and John, 'sons of thunder', asked Jesus that he let them sit on his right and left hand in heaven. When copying from Mark, the author of Matthewaltered this (Matthew 20:20-21) so that it was their mother who made this request, perhaps to avoid the appearance of presumption on the parts of two important disciples.

How many days were the disciples in the upper room waiting for Christ?

In Matthew's Gospel, the disciples never met Jesus in the upper room - they went to a mountain in Galilee, where they saw Jesus. In Luke's Gospel, Jesus met all the disciples in the upper room on the evening of the day of his resurrection and then took them out towards Bethany, where he was taken bodily up into heaven. In John's Gospel, Jesus also met the disciples in the upper room on the evening of the day of his resurrection - but only ten of them, Thomas being absent. Jesus returned after eight days and met all the disciples. Later, he met them at the Sea of Galilee. Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen, and the fled in terror, telling no one. The 'Long Ending' (verses 19:9-20), added much later, has Jesus meeting the disciples as in Luke, but does not say when.

Where is Jesus skeleton?

There is no skeleton of Jesus. That's because He is not dead! He died once to pay the penalty for His people's sins. Then he was buried but after three days he rose again. He remained on the earth for 40 days, teaching His disciples. Then He ascended into heaven. That is where His living body is right now. One day, He will return to take all believers to live in heaven with Him. Everyone who turns away from sin and puts their trust in Him will live with Him forever!
