Luke 24:50 · Douay-Rheims

“And he led them out as far as Bethania: and lifting up his hands, he blessed them.”

On this verse:

“The Spirit had not yet come, and yet their conversation is spiritual. Before they were shut up; now they stand in the midst of the chief priests; distracted by no worldly object, but despising all things, they praise God continually; as it follows, Praising and blessing God.”
