the moon is in front of the sun and the suns rays go thorough the moon to make a orangeish reddihs color.
During a lunar eclipse, the earth moves between the sun and the moon. Light from the sun passes through the earth's atmosphere and is partially deflected to the moon. The deflected light gives the moon a reddish tint. The light from the sun certainly does not pass THROUGH the moon.
