1 Thessalonians 4:15-18
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
2 Timothy 4:7-8
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing .
This BLOOD eclipse covers the time that Jesus DIED (3:00 PM) on
the cross, AND, most likely His BURIAL because the next day was
Passover (and considered a Sabbath) so they wanted Him in the
ground prior to Passover beginning at evening (6:00 PM). This
Eclipse covers those hours. Israel is 2 hours ahead of UTC time:
Current local time in Jerusalem
Partial eclipse begins: 12:46 Universal Time (ISRAEL TIME = 2:26 PM)
Total eclipse begins: 14:06 UT (ISRAEL TIME = 4:06 PM)
Greatest eclipse: 14:32 UT (ISRAEL TIME = 4:32 PM)
Total eclipse ends: 14:57 UT (ISRAEL TIME = 4:57 PM)
Partial eclipse ends: 16:18 UT (ISRAEL TIME = 6:18 PM)
Matthew 27 (KJV)
45 Now from the SIXTH HOUR (12:00 NOON) there was darkness
over all the land unto the NINTH HOUR (3:00 PM).
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying,
Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast
thou forsaken me?
47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This
man calleth for Elias.
48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it
with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.

Shabbat Eclipse - Saturday evening
Next Friday night Saturday night, December 10, the full moon
will rise fully eclipsed at 4:37PM as we walk home from shul
(beit keneset) after the end of Shabbat. This event will begin
low in the east, so it is best to seek out a clear eastern horizon.
Totality will end at 5:00PM. The partial phase ends at 6:18PM.
Since it will be immediately after Shabbat we won't be doing
any sky tours, but watching privately from the edge of the
Machtesh. Enjoy it wherever you may be. And Shabbat Shalom!
