^9 (A)(Now this, “He ascended”—what does it mean but that He also ^[a]first descended into the lower parts of the earth?

^13 (A)No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man ^[a]who is in heaven.

^40 (A)For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

³³ For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”

⁹ But we see Jesus, ^(A)who was made ^[a]a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death ^(B)crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death ^(C)for everyone.

¹⁷ Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ^(A)ascended to My Father; but go to ^(B)My brethren and say to them, ^(C)‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to ^(D)My God and your God.’ ”

^27 (A)for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me, and ^(B)have believed that I came forth from God. ^28 (C)I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”
