The Ascension
9 And after He had said these things, (A)He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 10 And as they were gazing intently into [a]the sky while He was going, behold, (B)two men in white clothing stood beside them. 11 They also said, “(C)Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking toward heaven? This Jesus, who (D)has been taken up from you into heaven, will (E)come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven.”
