It's said, Dan. 7.13.14. I saw, (saith the Prophet) in the night visions, and behold one like the Son of man came with the Clouds of Heaven; and came to the ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. And there was given him, dominion, and glory and a Kingdom; that all People, Nations, and Languages should serve him. This Vision of Daniels was accomplished in Christs ascension, when they (i. e.) the Angels brought him to the ancient of days (i. e.) to God the Father,1 who to express his welcome to Christ, gave him glory and a Kingdom. And so it is and ought to be expounded. The Father received him with open arms, rejoicing exceedingly to see him again in heaven, therefore God is said to receive him up into glory, 1 Tim. 3.16. For that which with respect to Christ, is called ascension, is with respect to the Father called assumption. He went up, and the Father received him. Yea, received him so, as none ever was received before him, or shall be received after him.
