Go to the "came down from above" in what Pseudo-Hippolytus says. That's a kind of flying - what religious people tend to call heavenly descent.Why would Marcion have "conspired" to steal a "regular" gospel (where Jesus is a historical figure) and "implant" the idea that Jesus could fly?
Or go to the "taken up to heaven" of Acts 1:2. That's a kind of flying - what religious people tend to call heavenly ascent.
Or go to Mark 6:48 with its "he went out to them, walking on the lake." That's also a kind of unnatural levitation or flying - what religious people tend to call walking on water.
Or go to Luke 24:51 with its "was taken up into heaven." That's a kind of flying - what religious people tend to call heavenly ascent.
Or go to Peter 39, with "they see three males who have come out from the sepulcher, with the two supporting the other one, and a cross following them."
What's so special about a flying Jesus?
