I don't remember if this came up in this thread or another one, but I recently heard a talk that made a point about the cloud that took Jesus up (Acts 1:9). I thought I'd share it with you for what it's worth. It was that the cloud that would have come to the mind of the readers would have been that found in Exodus, the pillar of cloud, that guided the Israelites and symbolized the glory of YHVH. While there still is a lifting up, it's not Jesus going all the way up into the clouds as we usually think of them.

This is a bit off-topic but since your brought up Jesus I feel I can at least ask this question.
Does anyone here know why the Rabis convinced the Romans to crucify Jesus?
I did find this post on another forum that brings up this conflict of interest.

I agree. Like I said, I couldn't remember where we had talked about that, so I just put it here. I probably should have sent a private message. I just thought you might be interested in it because we had talked about it.
