I love this verse! And I believe the sun or the son is Jesus Christ. The bible says "and God created them; male and female he created them and then it says "the sun knoweth his going down." Jesus knew his destiny and that was the cross. He knew what his end would be. And we don't know the future. But he wishes to reveal things to us. Secrets and glories. We do not obtain these Things but through many tribulations! Not just a few but thanks be to God for we are overcomers through him who first loved us and offered himself up, the spotless lamb.
