< Acts 1 >
1 The first account which I drew up, Theophilus, dealt with all that Jesus did and taught from the very first,

3 With abundant proofs, he showed himself to them, still living, after his death; appearing to them from time to time during forty days, and speaking of all that related to the kingdom of God.

4 And once, when he had gathered them together, he charged them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait there for the fulfillment of the Father’s promise – “that promise,” he said, “of which you have heard me speak;

6 So, when the apostles had met together, they asked Jesus this question – “Master, is this the time when you intend to re-establish the kingdom for Israel?”

7 His answer was, “It is not for you to know times or hours, for the Father has reserved these for his own decision;

9 No sooner had Jesus said this than he was caught up before their eyes, and a cloud received him from their sight.

10 While they were still gazing up into the heavens, as he went, suddenly two men, clothed in white, stood beside them,

11 and said, “People of Galilee, why are you standing here looking up into the heavens? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into the heavens, will come in the same way in which you have seen him go into the heavens.”

12 Then the apostles returned to Jerusalem from the hill called Olivet, which is about three quarters of a mile from the city.

13 When they reached Jerusalem, they went to the upstairs room, where they were staying. There were there Peter, John, James, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.

20 “For in the book of Psalms,” Peter continued, “it is said – ‘Let his home become desolate, and let no one live in it’; and also – ‘His office let another take.’
