What time did the darkness occur during Jesus' crucifixion?

Scripture records that from the sixth hour to the ninth hour, darkness covered all the land. This corresponds to high noon until three in the afternoon, a three-hour period of intense darkness and absolute silence from the cross during the crucifixion.

Les explains that the darkness lasted from the sixth hour to the ninth hour, which is high noon until three in the afternoon. He feels that during those three hours of intense darkness and absolute silence from the cross, Christ in His Deity, in His omnipotence, and in everything associated with His being God, went in the spirit realm, in the soul and spirit, and suffered the punishment for every human being. Then He came back from that three hours of silence.

Matthew 27:45

Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.

What happened while Jesus was on the cross from noon until 3 PM?

From noon until 3 PM, darkness and total silence covered the cross, with no words spoken. Jesus remained alive, and the scapegoat imagery suggests that in soul and spirit He stepped out of time into eternity to suffer punishment for all mankind's sin.
