Gospel of Matthew Chapter 24 Vs. 29

 The Coming of the Son of Man

Matthew 24:29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:”

the sun be... Such phenomena are a common feature of the Day of the Lord prophecy (see Isa. 13:9-10; Eze. 32:7-8; Joel 2:10, 31; 3:15; Amos 8:9). The ultimate fulfillment of these prophecies takes place during the time of the Beast’s reign (Rev. 6:12-13; 8:12).

Immediately following the distress of that period, the Lord will return. His return will be accompanied by unusual displays in the heavens (Mat. 24:29; cf. Isa. 13:10; 34:4; Joel 2:31; 3:15-16) and by the appearing of His sign in the sky (Mat. 24:30). The appearance of the sign will cause all the nations to mourn (cf. Rev. 1:7), probably because they will realize the time of their judgment has come.
