Wesley's Explanatory Notes - Luke 24:50

And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.He led them out as far as Bethany — Not the town, but the district: to the mount of Olives, Acts 1:12, which stood within the boundaries of Bethany. read more

Wesley's Explanatory Notes - Luke 24:51

And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.And while he was blessing them, he was parted from them — It was much more proper that our Lord should ascend into heaven, than that he should rise from the dead, in the sight of the apostles. For his resurrection was proved when they saw him alive after his passion: but they could not see him in heaven while they continued on earth. read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:50

50. Led them out From Jerusalem, where, doubtless, they tarried after their return from Galilee. As far as to Bethany Εως εις , as far as into. That is, to the point where the into commenced; to the entrance, but not into Bethany. Luke implies in Acts 1:12, that the ascension took place from the Mount of Olives, which agrees with the present passage; for Bethany is upon the eastern slope of that mountain. Barclay, in his “City of the Great King,” identifies a hillock overhanging... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:50-53

§ 156. JESUS’S ASCENSION, Luke 24:50-53 . Mark 16:19-20; Acts 1:9-12. Inasmuch as Luke alone of the Evangelists explicitly describes the visible and bodily ascension of Jesus, adverse criticism has questioned the reality of the fact. The New Testament, they admit, does plentifully assume that Christ is in heaven; but, perhaps, his soul only. (Matthew 26:64; John 20:17; Acts 2:33; Eph 4:10 ; 1 Peter 3:22.) But, 1. Since the body of Jesus rose, in possession of supernatural qualities belonging... read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:51

51. Parted from them By his already commenced upward movement. It interrupted, as it were, his benediction, so that he ascended with hands outspread in blessing them. By a cloud upborne, he soon disappeared from sight; but for such a departure his apostles felt not grief, but abounding joy. Up into heaven See note on Mark 16:19. The picture of the ascension, with its results upon their minds, is at once exquisitely beautiful and perfectly natural. read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:53

53. Continually in the temple Religions engagements occupied the whole time. Theirs was now a religion of joy; their worship was praising and blessing. How powerful the contrast of their present courage with their despair at the death of Christ. read more
