- Jesus Taken Up Into Heaven
- 1
- In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach
- 2
- until the day he was taken up to heaven,
- after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen.
- 3
- After his suffering, he showed himself to these men
- and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive.
- He appeared to them over a period of forty days
- and spoke about the kingdom of God.
- 4
- On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command:
- "Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised,
- which you have heard me speak about.
- 5
- For John baptized with water,
- but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit."
- 6
- So when they met together, they asked him,
- "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?"
- 7
- He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates
- the Father has set by his own authority.
- 8
- But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;
- and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria,
- and to the ends of the earth."
- 9
- After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes,
- and a cloud hid him from their sight.
- 10
- They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going,
- when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them.
- 11
- "Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking into the sky?
- This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven,
- will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven."
- Matthias Chosen to Replace Judas
- 12
- Then they returned to Jerusalem from the hill called the Mount of Olives,
- a Sabbath day's walk from the city.
- 13
- When they arrived, they went upstairs to the room where they were staying.
- Those present were Peter, John, James and Andrew; Philip and Thomas,
- Bartholomew and Matthew; James son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot,
- and Judas son of James.
- 14
- They all joined together constantly in prayer,
- along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
- 15
- In those days Peter stood up among the believers
- (a group numbering about a hundred and twenty)
- 16
- and said, "Brothers, the Scripture had to be fulfilled which the Holy Spirit
- spoke long ago through the mouth of David concerning Judas,
- who served as guide for those who arrested Jesus--
- 17
- he was one of our number and shared in this ministry."
- 18
- (With the reward he got for his wickedness, Judas bought a field;
- there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out.
- 19
- Everyone in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called
- that field in their language Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)
- 20
- "For," said Peter, "it is written in the book of Psalms,
- "`May his place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in it,'
- and, "`May another take his place of leadership.'
- 21
- Therefore it is necessary to choose one of the men who have been
- with us the whole time the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
- 22
- beginning from John's baptism to the time when Jesus was taken up from us.
- For one of these must become a witness with us of his resurrection."
- 23
- So they proposed two men:
- Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias.
- 24
- Then they prayed, "Lord, you know everyone's heart.
- Show us which of these two you have chosen
- 25
- to take over this apostolic ministry, which Judas left to go where he belongs."
- 26
- Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias;
- so he was added to the eleven apostles.
