Matthew 27:45

Jesus Dies

45 From noon until three o'clock, the whole land was covered with darkness.

Matthew 27:45 In-Context

43 He trusts in God. Let God rescue him now if he wants him. He's the one who said, 'I am the Son of God.' "
44 In the same way the robbers who were being crucified with Jesus also made fun of him.
45 From noon until three o'clock, the whole land was covered with darkness.
46 About three o'clock, Jesus cried out in a loud voice. He said, ""Eloi, Eloi, lama" "sabachthani?"" This means "My God, my God, why have you deserted me?"(Psalm 22:1)
47 Some of those standing there heard Jesus cry out. They said, "He's calling for Elijah."
