And a Blood Moon too!
Doom! Despair! Agony on Me! We’re all gonna Die!
Any thoughts on the religious significance of this at this point in time?
Blood Moons - Mark Biltz

Not having researched this I don’t know the validity, but here is something I found:
I would just like to add the following interesting info from and email a reader kindly sent to me:
“Not only is this Holy Week special because [the first full day of] Passover Nisan 15 is on Saturday April 4th, as it was when Jesus died, but if you check the Jewish Calendar Jesus died on April 3rd of the year 33, which is also the date of Good Friday this year! And the last time the Roman calendar, the Jewish calendar and the Western Liturgical coincided was in 1863! “

Uhg... I’ve read the blood moons book by Hagee and looked over Biltz’ theories. It is superstition at best, and poorly correlated conclusions that are more of a coincidence.
Let us not forget that false profits will show great signs and wonders, Matthew 24:24 - For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect
No, at least not any more than the usual significance of such coincidences: that the Gregorian Paschalion used by the Christian West is in violation of the plain meaning of the decrees of the Council of Nicaea, and everyone should be commemorating Our Lord’s Saving Death a week later.

Good Christians and Jews need to hang together or we will surely hang separately.
