    • According to 2 Kings, Jonah was active during the period circa 786–746 BC (22).  In his writing, The Sign of Jonah and the Binding of Satan,(23) Emmett O'Regan directs our attention to a total solar eclipse that traversed Nineveh (Mozul) on June 15, 763 BC.  O'Regan states, "some theologians have forwarded the hypothesis that the reason the inhabitants of Nineveh were so receptive to Jonah's message of doom was because a solar eclipse had taken place over the city at around the same time the prophet had arrived to announce its fate(24)…Given the possibility that the repentance of the Ninevites at the preaching of Jonah can be attributed to the…eclipse, we have some grounds to suggest that the original 'sign of Jonah' consisted of the appearance of a total solar eclipse over the site of ancient Nineveh." (The sign of Jonah referred to by Mr. O'Regan refers to the words of Jesus as recorded in Lk 11:29-33, and addressed below.)




    "When the crowds were increasing, he began to say, "This generation is an evil generation; it seeks a sign, but no sign shall be given to it except the sign of Jonah.  For as Jonah became a sign to the men of Nineveh, so will the Son of man be to this generation.  The queen of the South will arise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here.  The men of Nineveh will arise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here. "  (Lk 11:29-33)
     
     Indeed, the sign referred to at the end of this discourse is Jesus, and His prophetic call to holiness.  As we indicate in this writing, it appears to refer to a heavenly sign, as well.  We submit that just as the sign that accompanied Jonah appears to have been a total solar eclipse (an ill omen), another similar and well-timed heavenly call to repentance via the cosmos will occur, soon.

    Interesting. As Jesus's death on the cross was accompanied by an eclipse, so were Jonah's three days in the belly of the whale.
    And now an eclipse here in America.

    Here's a link with an article on the eclipse and a graphic of its progress across the North American continent:

    .
    Mistake!!
    .
    The death of Our Lord Jesus on the cross was not accompanied by an eclipse. Absolutely a mistake to say otherwise.
    .
    The darkness that covered the earth for 3 hours could not have been due to an eclipse for several reasons.
    1)  The world was in the full moon phase when the moon is on the opposite side of the earth from the sun, for it was under a full moon when Our Lord was taken in the Garden of Gesthemane, betrayed by Judas Iscariot under the light of the moon.
    2)  No solar eclipse ever lasts longer than a few minutes. The one coming on August 21st is the biggest astronomical  event in American history and it will last less than 3 minutes of darkness, with a few minutes fading in and a few more fading out, for a total of less than 15 minutes. So the 3 hours of darkness on Good Friday had to be of a miraculous nature, not one explainable by physical means.
    3) Any commentary you find saying it was an "eclipse" is wrong, for it is not Scriptural and has never been approved by the Church.
    4) When you see it explained as "an eclipse" it is a sure sign you are reading or hearing a false explanation, and there are therefore going to be other errors in what is said in this context.

    • In the early Church there were various traditions that arose for when the date of Easter would be each year.
    .
    After a few hundred years of confusion, the Holy See finally made a decision, to establish the official date of Easter in the Roman rite and therefore in the Western Church, as being defined as the first Sunday following the first full moon of spring. If the first full moon occurs at 23:59:59 Saturday evening, Resurrection Sunday follows in one second. If it occurs at 00:00:01 Sunday morning, the Feast day is delayed by one week.
    .
    This is to assure that Holy Week and therefore Good Friday never takes place during a new moon, making it impossible for a solar eclipse to happen on Good Friday, and discouraging the erroneous fable of the darkness during Our Lord's crucifixion to have been due to any natural event such as an eclipse.
    .
    The Miracle of the Sun that occurred on October 13th, 1917, was not due to any natural cause, either. And we can easily see that what everyone saw on the first Good Friday was equally inexplicable by logic or reason. It was truly a stand-alone miraculous 3 hours.

    Today you can find all manner of explanations of what the Second Coming will be caused by or how it will occur with many and sundry ideas about how all the prophesies can be fulfilled using everyday ordinary means. Forget it. When Our Lord returns it will be utterly unheard of, what happens, and nobody will be able to anticipate it or do anything about it.
