Acts 1:9-11. Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)
Dear Theophilos:
1 In the first book, I wrote about everything Yeshua set out to do and teach, 2 until the day when, after giving instructions through the Ruach HaKodesh to the emissaries whom he had chosen, he was taken up into heaven.
3 After his death he showed himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. During a period of forty days they saw him, and he spoke with them about the Kingdom of God.
4 At one of these gatherings, he instructed them not to leave Yerushalayim but to wait for “what the Father promised, which you heard about from me. 5 For Yochanan used to immerse people in water; but in a few days, you will be immersed in the Ruach HaKodesh!”
6 When they were together, they asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore self-rule to Isra’el?” 7 He answered, “You don’t need to know the dates or the times; the Father has kept these under his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Ruach HaKodeshcomes upon you; you will be my witnesses both in Yerushalayim and in all Y’hudah and Shomron, indeed to the ends of the earth!”
9 After saying this, he was taken up before their eyes; and a cloud hid him from their sight. 10 As they were staring into the sky after him, suddenly they saw two men dressed in white standing next to them. 11 The men said, “You Galileans! Why are you standing, staring into space? (((((This Yeshua, who has been taken away from you into heaven, will come back to you in just the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”)))))
JESUS MOSHIACH RETURN Mark 13:14, 19, 26-33 (CJB)
14 “Now when you see theabomination that causes devastation standing where it ought not to be” (let the reader understand the allusion), “that will be the time for those in Y’hudah to escape to the hill
19 For there will be worse trouble at that time than there has ever been from the very beginning, when God created the universe, until now; and there will be nothing like it again.20 Indeed, if God had not limited the duration of the trouble, no one would survive; but for the sake of the elect, those whom he has chosen, he has limited it.
26 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with tremendous power and glory.27 He will send out his angels and gather together his chosen people from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven.
THE NATION OF ISRAEL AGAIN....IS REPRESENTED BY THE FIG TREE
28 “Now let the fig tree teach you its lesson: when its branches begin to sprout and leaves appear, you know that summer is approaching. 29 In the same way, when you see all these things happening, you are to know that the time is near, right at the door. 30 Yes! I tell you that this people will certainly not pass away before all these things happen. 31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will certainly not pass away. 32 However, when that day and hour will come, no one knows — not the angels in heaven, not the Son, just the Father. 33 Stay alert! Be on your guard! For you do not know when the time will come.

7 Look! He is coming with the clouds! Every eye will see him including those who pierced him; and all the tribes of the Land will mourn him.

It doesn't say he RETURNED to heaven...It just says he was taken up...And you do know that this is NOT the Jewish bible, don't you?...

Mark, Acts, and Revelation are NOT a part of Jewish canon.

My post did give this
Complete Jewish Bible
Acts 1: 9-11. 9 After saying this, he was taken up before their eyes; and a cloud hid him from their sight. 10 As they were staring into the sky after him, suddenly they saw two men dressed in white standing next to them. 11 The men said, “You Galileans! Why are you standing, staring into space? This Yeshua, who has been taken away from you into heaven, will come back to you in just the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”

Acts is part of the New Testament. It is not valid in the Jewish faith and quite honestly, looks quite blasphemous to me.

But he did not RETURN to heaven....
