Acts 1:12 tells us it was Mount Olivet near Jerusalem.

Luke 24:50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.24:51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

"....it was from Bethany that he parted from his disciples at the Ascension. Bethany is commonly identified with the village of al-Eizariya located about 1½ miles to the east [1] of Jerusalem on the south-eastern slope of the Mount of Olives." Wikipedia-Bethany

Luke 24:50-51 says "When he had led them out to the vicinity of Bethany, he lifted up his hands and blessed them. While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up into heaven."

Acts 1:10-11 gives further detail about the ascension but not the exact location.

"They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. "Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven."

How many times did Jesus ascend into heaven after being raised from the dead?

According to Christian belief, Jesus ascended into heaven once, 40 days after his resurrection. This event is known as the Ascension and is celebrated by Christians as a significant event in the life of Jesus.


Did Jesus ascended with his Physical body or Spiritual body?

According to the Bible Jesus as a whole was taken up to heaven; both, I suppose. Jesus ascended with his Spiritual Body."But some man will say, How are the dead raised up and with what body do they come? Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened except it die; and that which thou sowest thou sowest not that body that shall be" (I Corinthians xv, 35-37). "It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body" (44) "Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God" (50). Jesus' physical body must be buried somewhere.


What did Jesus say he would leave with the disciples?

Jesus said he would leave the Holy Spirit with the disciples to guide and empower them to continue his work after he ascended to heaven.


If Jesus ascended to heaven in spirit are there anybody in the Bible who ascended to heaven in his or her mortal body?

Yes, the Bible mentions two individuals who ascended to heaven in their mortal bodies: Enoch and Elijah. Enoch "walked with God" and was taken by God so that he did not experience death (Genesis 5:24; Hebrews 11:5), while Elijah was taken up to heaven in a whirlwind in a chariot of fire (2 Kings 2:11).


How many days before anyone could touch Jesus after his resurrection?

A:This depends on the passage being read:In Matthew 28:9, the women touch Jesus, holding him by the feet, on the morning of his resurrection. Jesus allowed them to worship him thus.In John 20:17, Jesus says to Mary Magdalene, "Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended ..." In this gospel, not only could Mary not touch Jesus, but no one could before he rose to heaven.Eight days later, still in John's Gospel at verse 20:27, Jesus forgets his earlier concern and tells Thomas to touch his wounds.
