Earthquake:
Earthquakes, more or less violent, are of frequent occurrence in Palestine. The most remarkable occurred in the reign of Uzziah (Zechariah 14:5). From Zechariah 14:4, we are led to infer that a great convulsion took place at this time in the Mount of Olives, the mountain being split so as to leave a valley between its summit. An earthquake occurred at the time of our Saviour's crucifixion (Matthew 27:51-54). Earthquakes are not infrequently accompanied by fissures of the earth's surface; instances of this are recorded in connection with the destruction of Korah and his company (Numbers 16:32) and at the time of our Lord's death (Matthew 27:51). The former may be paralleled by a similar occurrence at Oppido in Calabria A.D. 1783, where the earth opened to the extent of five hundred and a depth of more than two hundred feet.
