Hi, Isaac —
Thanks for your questions.
As to Heaven being a place.
Well, it has to be some sort of place.
It might not be time and space as
we understand it but existence itself
requires space. Now that doesn't
mean the space has the same law of
physics as our space but that's really
a mystery we can't begin to understand.
As to whether other souls that have
been taken to Heaven both body and
soul.
Depending on how literally you want
to take Genesis, Genesis 5 seems
to imply that Enoch was taken up
into Heaven, body and soul. Later
in the book of Second Kings, we see
that Elijah was taken body and soul into Heaven. There are some Jewish traditions
as well.
In addition, one could possibly
understand the epistle of Jude to
say that Moses' dead body was taken
into Heaven. I would imagine, if
that's the case, his body was reunited
to his soul.
