Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that Jesus also being baptized and praying, heaven was opened;
And he retired into the desert, and prayed.
And having dismissed the multitude, he went into a mountain alone to pray. And when it was evening, he was there alone.
And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples also were with him: and he asked them, saying: Whom do the people say that I am?
Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, when I was in the midst of the captives by the river Chobar, the heavens were opened, and I saw the visions of God.
And he saith to him: Amen, amen I say to you, you shall see the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
Beginning from the baptism of John, until the day wherein he was taken up from us, one of these must be made a witness with us of his resurrection.
