Matthew 24:29 - An Understandable Version (2005 edition)

²⁹ “But immediately after the terrible trouble of those days, [i.e., the next major event on God’s calendar], the sun will become dark, and [therefore] the moon will not [be able to] shed its [reflected] light. The stars will fall from the sky and the forces of the heavens will be shaken [Note: From the description of these same events in Luke 21:25-26, it is possible that this is figurative language for great calamities happening on the earth].
