Ascend [1]

a - send ´: By derivation the English word implies motion from a lower place to (not merely toward) a higher one; and usage tends to restrict it to cases where the beholder is in the lower, not the higher, position. the King James Version uses it 39 times in all: (1) of the going up of vapor ( Psalm 135:7 ), flame ( Judges 20:40 ), or smoke ( Revelation 8:4 ); (2) of travel from one place to another ( Acts 25:1 ) or of the course of a boundary ( Joshua 15:3 ); (3) of coming up from the underworld ( 1 Samuel 28:13;  Revelation 11:7;  Revelation 17:8 ); and (4) of the going up (of men, angels, our Lord) from earth to the skies or to heaven ( Genesis 28:12;  John 3:13 ). the Revised Version (British and American) uses the appropriate form of "to go up" in all cases falling under (2) and (3); in those under (4) it retains "ascend" with an occasional change in tense; under (1) it retains "ascend" everywhere in Old Testament ( Exodus 19:18;  Joshua 8:20 ,  Joshua 8:21;  Psalm 135:7 parallel   Jeremiah 10:13 parallel   Jeremiah 51:16 ) except  Judges 20:40 , but substitutes "went up," "goeth up," in New Testament ( Revelation 8:4;  Revelation 14:11 ). The like change in the Old Testament passages would make the usage of the Revised Version (British and American) uniform.
