Psalm 22:1-21
In this Psalm we will see the graphic imagery of the pain and anguish that Jesus succumbed to. As one scholar said,
“Approach this Psalm with the utmost solemnity and reverence, because you have probably never stood on holier ground before. You have come to Golgotha where the Good Shepherd is giving His life for the sheep. For three hours the earth has been enveloped in thick darkness. Now “Immanuel’s orphaned cry” echoes through the universe: “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
