Luke’s Insights Into the Second Coming of Jesus

Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven -A new look at Acts 1:11 Many exegetes have interpreted this verse as a reproof of the people standing by looking at Jesus ascending into heaven. They believe the author describes the two divine messengers as somehow implying that the disciples are wasting their time and that they should go evangelizing right away because Jesus has already left. As we shall see this interpretation fails to notice the correct type of action from each of the verb tenses in Acts 1:9 and in 1:10.
