Do You Believe???

Shalom, Hitch.

Bethany is the specific location of the ascension as per holy writ;

0 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

Welches is a small town in Oregon, Rhodedendron is also a small town in Oregon, both on are the flanks of Mt Hood. Mt Hood .like Olivet has many destinations. One may say 'I am going to the Mountain' generically and be correct but if an important event is planned to take place in Welches traveling to Rhodedendron would be a mistake.

You're being a little too nit-picky. Beit-Anyah is ON Har HaZeitiym. So, if Yeshua` ascended from Beit-Anyah, then He ascended from Har HaZeitiym! We aren't told WHERE on Har HaZeitiym Yeshua` returns in Z'kharyahu's prophecy, just that He will set foot on it! It could very well be that He will return to Beit-Anyah! SO?!!!

Acts 1:9-12
9 And when He had spoken these things, while they beheld, He was taken up; and a cloud received Him out of their sight.
10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
11 Which also said, "Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven."
12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.
(KJV)

According to ESV the second "they" did not belong? ok posters error? Certainly not enough to be called an idiot over....
