And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
When He had spoken these things:
- He had spoken to them things concerning the kingdom of God
- He had told them it was not for them to know the time
- He had spoken to them of a promise of power
- He had spoken to them about being witnesses
Those things they had witnessed were:
His death
These were people who had known the Lord before His death and were witnesses of the historical fact of His crucifixion.
His burial
These were people who could all give witness that after His death, He was buried.
His resurrection
All these people bore witness that the Christ with whom they spoke had been dead and was once again alive.
His message
They had heard Him preach and teach both before and after He rose again.
His ascension
Which was just about to take place. They witnessed as He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight.
