"When did Jesus ascend into heaven?" (Alleged Contradiction #E2190)
We read that Jesus must have ascended into heaven the day of His resurrection (see Luke 24:51). However, we also read that He must have ascended into heaven at least eight days after His resurrection (John 20:26), or forty days after (Acts 13:31, Acts 1:2-3, 9).
Response
Jesus ascended into heaven more than once after His resurrection. This makes sense, too; how many times do you enter and leave your house every week? It is not surprising that Jesus would enter and leave Heaven several times within the forty days after His resurrection.
