Did Jesus move to Heaven in his body according to the Qur'an?

The Qur'an says indeed that Jesus was taken, not only as a spirit, but also in his body to Heaven:

"Rather, Allah raised him to Himself. And ever is Allah Exalted in Might and Wise" (4:158).

Note that nowhere is mentioned that Jesus changed from a body to a spirit. On the contrary, he ascended to Heaven in his complete body. This is a confirmation of the Gospel, "I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.” (John 20:17).
