Christ said specifically that the *days* would be shortened.
= = = =
In English--that can me either of 2 things:
1. Less hours in a day.
2. Less days in the period concerned.
As I understand it, not a single scholar has been able to determine what 'days will be shortened' means...The way I look at scripture is that if something hasn't been revealed to anyone, it doesn't concern us...It will be revealed to the right people at the right time...
But for me, less hours in a day would mean the earth would have to spin faster...I hope this isn't the case...I have enough trouble standing on my own two feet as it is...
