It is used to describe various events and actions, most notably the ascension of Jesus Christ into heaven. The concept of ascending is significant in biblical theology, symbolizing elevation, exaltation, and divine approval. Old Testament Usage In the Old Testament, "ascend" is frequently used in the context of worship and sacrifice. For example, the Israelites were often called to ascend to Jerusalem, the city set on a hill, for religious festivals and sacrifices. <a href="/psalms/24-3.htm">Psalm 24:3</a> poses the question, "Who may ascend the hill of the LORD? Who may stand in His holy place?" . This verse emphasizes the purity and righteousness required to approach God. The term is also used in the context of divine encounters. In <a href="/genesis/28-12.htm">Genesis 28:12</a>, Jacob dreams of a ladder reaching to heaven, with angels ascending and descending on it, symbolizing the connection between heaven and earth. New Testament Usage In the New Testament, the most significant use of "ascend" pertains to Jesus Christ. After His resurrection, Jesus ascended into heaven in the presence of His disciples. <a href="/acts/1-9.htm">Acts 1:9</a> states, "After He had said this, they watched as He was taken up, and a cloud hid Him from their sight" . This event is crucial as it marks the completion of Jesus' earthly ministry and His exaltation to the right hand of the Father. The ascension of Christ is also mentioned in <a href="/ephesians/4-10.htm">Ephesians 4:10</a>: "He who descended is the very One who ascended above all the heavens, in order to fill all things" . This passage highlights the authority and supremacy of Christ, who, having descended to earth, now reigns supreme in heaven. Theological Significance Theologically, the concept of ascending is rich with meaning. It signifies not only physical movement but also spiritual elevation. The ascension of Christ is a cornerstone of Christian doctrine, affirming His divinity and His role as the mediator between God and humanity. It assures believers of His ongoing intercession and the promise of His return. In a broader sense, the call to ascend is an invitation to believers to seek a higher spiritual plane, to draw nearer to God, and to live lives that reflect His holiness and righteousness. The imagery of ascending serves as a reminder of the ultimate goal of the Christian life: to be united with God in His heavenly kingdom.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

The like change in the Old Testament passages would make the usage of the Revised Version (British and American) uniform. F. K.
