But nothing hinders our supposing that the sun and moon with the other stars shall for a time lose their light, as we know did the sun at the time of the Lord’s passion; as Joel also says, “The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon blood, before the great and manifest day of the Lord come.” [Joel 2:31]
But when the day of judgment is passed, and the life of future glory shall dawn, and there shall be a new heaven and a new earth, then shall that come to pass of which Isaiah speaks, “The light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold. The stars shall fall from heaven,” [Isa 30:26] is expressed in Mark; “There shall be stars falling from heaven,” [Mark 13:25] that is, lacking their proper light.
