Exegesis
Two aorist indicatives, anelēmphthē {ἀνελήμφθη | a-ne-lēm-phthē} and ekathisen {ἐκάθισεν | e-ká-thi-sen}, form a coordinated sequence of completed actions: first the passive “He was taken up,” highlighting divine agency in the ascension, then the active “He sat down,” underscoring His deliberate assumption of royal position.
In context — Mark 16:19
So then, the Lord Jesus , after speaking to them, was taken up into heaven, and He sat at the right hand of God .
