It saysin 2 Kings 2:11, it says
"And it came to pass, as they still went on and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven."
However, in John 3:13, it says
" And no man hath ascended up to Heaven, but He that came down from Heaven, even the Son of Man who is in Heaven."
Would anyone here please reconcile these two verses???
Yes indeed.
The Son of Man is the Title of Deity given to God the Word in heaven, who was with God, hidden, and who was God, and who was to come in flesh, die as the Lamb for our Atonement/Peace with God as Adam beings, descend to Sheol to give all sin to Azazel & Co chained there, ascend, taking those righteous souls held captive in the first death to the City of God above,
where the Son of Man sits on the prepared throne as God the Word and Creator of all things for Himself, and in whose bodily image [Romans 5:14] Adam [the name of the first human being race] is made.
When the Son of Man put on the prepared in the womb of a virgin, flesh body of second creation [like a garment Isaiah 59], He did not cease being the Son of Man in heaven, sitting on the throne, but was the Hidden One seen in Him only by Enoch the prophet, the seventh from Adam.
So you just need to realize that the throne in heaven is that throne prepared for the Son of Man and on which no human being will sit or ascend to, but will share the rule
with Him who was threre
from the beginning, hidden in God and who was God, and who is come in flesh, but who never left the throne in heaven vacated while He was -and is- extended into the prepared human being flesh body and nature for His coming as Kinsman/Redeemer.
You must read the book of Enoch to understand the throne of God in heaven which no human being ascended to and which was prepared for the Son of Man from the beginning of creation.
"Enoch" is canon in the Ethiopian Orthodox Bible and should never have been cast off by western believers, because it is the foundational prophetic revelation to understand the Gospel "from the beginning of creation".
Even the rehearsal of the Day of Atonemen,t when the goat is elected by lot "to Azazel" and on whom all sin was laid to take it to Azazel chained in the "wilderness" =Sheol-
cannot be understood without that foundational book.
Because it was cast aside and blindness entered the Western Church and their eyes were without revelation/sight, then the very name "Azazel" was not translated as "itself", in the English translations, but was made into "scapegoat" which is totally misleading for the reason the goat was elected by lot on the Day of Atonement "To Azazel", to whom all sin would be given on the Day of Atonement, as revealed in Enoch in a fragment written by Noah.
