![]() This is one of many interpretations of the concepts and figures presented. To be completely fair to ALL Christians, there is nothing in the Bible that directly states what you claim “Christians” believe, even in your referred passages. ![]() I understand the extrapolation of Iran from Persia, where Russia fits into this is really beyond me here… Also, it should be noted that it was stated that this army was “a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords” (Ezekiel 38:4)… so I’m sure that the standing military in Israel armed with tanks, RPG’s and automatic weapons will be able to take care of an army of swordsmen pretty easily without the need for fire and brimstone. “If there are extra particles in the atmosphere, from say a recent volcanic eruption, the moon will appear a darker shade of red.”Īccording to Ezekiel 38 (KJV) “Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya”(Ezekiel 38:5) are the only named parties involved in whatever is being mentioned (whether it already occurred or not) besides Israel and Gog/Magog (which are referred to many times in the Bible as different individuals, cultures AND regions), so keep an eye out for a flotilla of North African troops moving across the Mediterranean. “The exact color that the moon appears depends on the amount of dust and clouds in the atmosphere,” according to NASA scientists. Most light is blocked, but some red bounces past, and seems to project itself, like a sunrise or sunset, coloring the Moon. Eclipses occur when the Earth moves exactly between the Moon and the Sun the Earth’s shadow covers the Moon. Why does the moon appear red? It has to do with the bending of light rays in the atmosphere. The eclipse will be visible in much of the Western Hemisphere, including North America, Central America, the western half of South America and the islands of the Pacific Ocean*. Then the process starts to wane, and about two to three hours later, it will be over. You won’t see much for the first hour, but then into the second and third hours, the moon will darken gradually until it becomes a totally reddish disk. ![]() PDT, April 14)Īctual Eclipse Begins: 1:58 a.m. To be clear: For L.A., and other points in the Pacific time zone, the eclipse will begin and reach totality just at the stroke of midnight on Monday night, and then continue into the wee hours of Tuesday morning! Got that, New Yorkers? (Actually, NYC and the Eastern time zone as a whole is not the greatest spot to be trying to watch the eclipse it is right on the eastern edge of the viewing area.)īut if you are watching in Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco, Honolulu, etc, the eclipse starts before midnight on what is still Monday evening, April 14. So – officially – the eclipse’s start time is just before 1 a.m. The confusion around the timing is because the official times listed for the eclipse are based on Eastern Daylight Time – even though the best viewing of the eclipse will be west of that time zone. ![]() Actually, in most places where it will be visible, you should start watching on April 14 – that’s Monday evening! There is some confusion as to when you should start watching the total lunar eclipse – known as a blood red moon – that is listed as occurring on April 15, 2014. A blood red moon – a total lunar eclipse – will occur on April 15.
