LUKE 23:44 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.”
It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon — about noon: the crucifixion has been ongoing since nine in the morning (Mark 15:25). Darkness over the whole land from noon to three: the Amos 8:9 sign (I will make the sun go down at noon and darken the earth in broad daylight) as the cosmic response to the crucifixion.
