Andrew, while I am looking "again at this argument about a first ascension in John 20:17-18," please permit me to ask you some questions.

In part, Hebrews 9:28 reads: "…unto them (or those) who look for Him…" According to your understanding, who are "them" in this phrase?

Also, in part, Hebrews 9:28 reads: "…He shall appear the second time…unto them…" When did the high priest (Jesus) appear the first time "unto them"?

Where did that first appearance "unto them" occur? When did it occur? How did it occur?
