Not An Eclipse: Three Hours of Global Darkness

April 8, 2024 • Stuart Olyott • Matthew 27:45

The total eclipse is a global spectacle, but did you know there was an event where complete darkness lasted for three hours? And it was not caused by an eclipse. Our Lord came into the world miraculously. He started His public ministry with a miracle. Throughout the three and a half years of His ministry, He performed many miracles. And it's completely fitting that, as the Son of God is on the cross, He continues to work miracles. The first is a mysterious darkness. Did you see it there? Verse 45, now from the sixth hour, and Luke says, over all the earth, and it's not an eclipse. - Stuart Olyott
