“For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.”
For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light; the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine—the cosmic disorder accompanying the day of the LORD, with the heavenly bodies ceasing to function. The darkness suggests the inversion of creation and the undoing of the natural order, indicating that judgment reverberates through the cosmos. This verse establishes that divine judgment transcends human affairs to affect creation itself.
