Acts 2:20
Compare all
18 And on My menservants and on My maidservants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days;
aAnd they shall prophesy. 
19 aI will show wonders in heaven above
And signs in the earth beneath:
Blood and fire and vapor of smoke. 
20 aThe sun shall be turned into darkness,
And the moon into blood,
Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord. 
21 And it shall come to pass
That awhoever calls on the name of the Lord
Shall be saved.’  
22 “Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a Man attested by God to you aby miracles, wonders, and signs which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know—

Acts 2:20

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood - These are figurative representations of eclipses, intended most probably to point out the fall of the civil and ecclesiastical state in Judea: see the notes on Matthew 24:29. That the Sun is darkened when a total eclipse takes place, and that the Moon appears of a bloody hue in such circumstances, every person knows.
