Luke 24:50-53

The Ascension

50 And he led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up his hands, he blessed them.

51 And it happened that while he was blessing them, he parted from them and was taken up into heaven.

52 And they worshiped him [and] returned to Jerusalem with great joy.

53 And they were {continually} in the temple [courts] praising God.

• [b]. Literally "through everything"
• [c]. *Here "[courts]" is supplied to distinguish this area from the interior of the temple building itself
