“So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.”
King James Version (KJV)
16:19 The Lord - How seasonable is he called by this title! After he had spoken to them - For forty days. #Lu 24:50|.
Mr 16:19 After the Lord had spoken unto them. The words above, and other words recorded in the other Evangelists. He was received up into heaven. In Acts it says, "a cloud received him out of their sight" (Ac 1:9). He did not fade away from sight, but a cloud came as a veil between him and the eyes of the gazing disciples. The cloud can be pierced by the eye of faith, and our Lord seen interceding for us at the right hand of God.
