He ascend into heaven, his physical body and all. I don't think we ever really knew exactly where the tomb was so it is lost.

As far as His ressurection goes just read the passage: Acts 1:9 "And after He had said these things, He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 10 And as they were gazing intently into the sky while He was going, behold, two men in white clothing stood beside them. 11 They also said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven."
As far as the tomb what happened is this. Following the life of Jesus the Jewish nation got into conflict with Rome who occupied that territory in Jesus day and Rome atacked and in 70 AD the temple was destroyed and Jewish people were dispersed over the entire inhabitated world at that time. Jews were not allowed to live in the Palestine area for a few hundred years. The result was that when Jewish people began to return a couple of hundred years later, no one really knew where any of the Biblical sites were located for sure except for a few obvious ones like Hezekiah's tunnel which could not be moved. So, When Constantine came to power in the 300's He made a visit to the holy land with his mother and appointed her to designate places to match the stories of the Bible. No one really knows for sure if any of the actual places are the real sites or not. Today there are two places that are considered to possibly be the tomb of Christ, one called the 'holy Secptcure' held by catholics, and Gordon's tomb recognized by most other christian groups. It may not have been either. Hope this helps.

In the bible, the Gospel of Matthew describes how the women came to the tomb and were told by an angel that it was empty. They were invited to look but it does not say that they saw for themselves. This Gospel does not actually record the ascension.
The Gospel of Mark describes how the women entered the tomb and found the body of Christ to have gone. In this account a young man was there who told them that the person they were looking for 'has been raised'. Later Jesus was 'taken up to heaven'. It doesn't say exactly how.
In Luke's Gospel, the women entered the tomb and did not find the body of Jesus. Two men told them 'He has been raised'. This Gospel says He was taken up into heaven - it does not mention any type of carriage.
John's Gospel says that Peter went into the tomb and saw the linen wrappings from the body but the body was not there. This Gospel tells how Jesus appeared to a number of disciples after his death but does not describe His ascension into heaven.

It is a total fiction. Jesus supposedly came from Nazareth, but at the time that he was supposed to have lived there it was a gravetown. Nobody lived there. The rest of the story is also false. Even to the type of cross they supposedly put him on. Romans made a cross like an X not a T. The Gospels get the years out of sequence, Confuse when Herod ruled and when Quirnius conducted the census (It was after the last of the Kings died and was in preparation for the conversion of the client province into a directly governed province) Jesus never existed, It is just one of many man-god killed on a tree myths and is almost a direct steal of mithridic lore.

He caught a British airways flight to heaven, he flew in first class and had a glass of champagne(after all he had been through he figured he was intitled to one) the tomb is now a major tourist attraction and has been moved to America and is part of a major Vegas musical show recalling the life and times of Jesus, the man and his life, it sells out regularly and is going to start a run on broadway

First consider what Peter wrote at 1st Peter 3:18.
"Why, even Christ died once for all time concerning sins, a righteous [person] for unrighteous ones, that he might lead YOU to God, he being put to death in the flesh, but being made alive in the spirit."
So, since he returned to the spirit realm, he didn't need any device to travel.
Research the accounts of the angels who had contact with humans, best example is the account of Daniel. He had angels bring him messages, one that even faced opposition from a demon, and required the aid of another angel to get to him. Spirit beings have no need of vehicles.

On the tomb that Jesus was placed, it may still be there. The account at Matthew shows that Jesus was placed in the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea.

"57 Now as it was late in the afternoon, there came a rich man of Ar·i·ma·the′a, named Joseph, who had also himself become a disciple of Jesus. 58 This man went up to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded it to be given over. 59 And Joseph took the body, wrapped it up in clean fine linen, 60 and laid it in his new memorial tomb, which he had quarried in the rock-mass. And, after rolling a big stone to the door of the memorial tomb, he left."

It was cut into rock, so the tomb may still exist. No doubt Joseph later used the tomb for himself and his family afterward.

Approx 500 hundred people witnessed the Ascension. A number of them were martyred for refusal to denounce the event.
Jesus was received into a cloud and the Bible states that He sat down at the right hand of the Father.

before answering this question, do you believe in God's word the bible? if yes is your answer, there is no fiction in it. Jesus really died and after his ressurection ascended to heaven to confirm read Matthew 27:56 down to 28: 1-13. according to john from chapter 20 the disciple beheld him when he was ascending to heaven. as per Jesus tomb it is empty but i dont really know if it is were it was today.

He was taken up in a cloud....

throughout the old testament a cloud is mentioned when God presents himself.... therefor we can say that God took Him back to heaven personally

The same way that Hercules ascended.Magic.

Oh, wait.Hercules and Jesus are the same dude.Just different versions.Oh, and one is now considered a myth.But they both have the basic story lines.That is the problem with writers.They always use the same material when writing religion.They just change names and places and add or subtract Gods.But it's all the same.
