Where did Jesus go after leaving from the Mount of Olives?
After departing from the Mount of Olives, He ascended back to God the Father and sat down at the right hand of the Father on high. This ascension is referenced in Acts chapter 1, marking His return to the heavenly realm.
Les explains that in Acts chapter 1, after Jesus left from the Mount of Olives, He went back up to God the Father and sat down at the right hand of the Father on high. This ascension follows His death, burial, and resurrection, and precedes the Church Age and then the Tribulation period. During the Tribulation, the woman—Israel—flees into the wilderness for three and a half years, where God prepares a place for her. Les connects this to the Exodus pattern: just as God miraculously provided for Israel for forty years, He will similarly provide for the fleeing Jews during the Tribulation, keeping them safe and secure even as events rage around them.
