At noon, darkness covered the whole land. It lasted three hours.At three o’clock in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice,“ Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” This means“ My God, my God, why have you deserted me?”( Psalm 22:1)
The fourth angel blew his trumpet. Then a third of the sun was struck. A third of the moon was struck. A third of the stars were struck. So a third of each of them turned dark. Then a third of the day had no light. The same thing happened to a third of the night.
