Contextual Overview

44 It was about noon, and the whole land became dark until three o'clock in the afternoon, 45 because the sun did not shine. The curtain in the Temple was torn in two. 46 Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Father, I give you my life." After Jesus said this, he died. 47 When the army officer there saw what happened, he praised God, saying, "Surely this was a good man!" 48 When all the people who had gathered there to watch saw what happened, they returned home, beating their chests because they were so sad. 49 But those who were close friends of Jesus, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance and watched.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the sun was darkened,.... There was an eclipse of it, which was preternatural, it being now full moon, and lasted three hours, and so total, as to darken the whole earth; and now was the prophecy in Amos 8:9 literally fulfilled: and the vail of the temple was rent in the midst. The Persic version renders it, "the gate of the temple"; and so the Syriac version, "the face of the gate of the temple"; Amos 8:9- :.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the notes at Matthew 27:45-50.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 45. The sun was darkened — See an examination of the accounts of Phlegon, Thallus, and Dionysius, on Matthew 27:45.
