Written by About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lima sabachthani?” That is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
In this verse, as Jesus hangs on the cross, He cries out, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”; echoing Book of Psalms 22:1. This moment reveals the depth of Jesus’ suffering, as He bears the weight of humanity’s sin and experiences separation from the Father. Yet it is not a cry of defeat, but fulfillment, pointing to prophecy and the cost of redemption. Even in anguish, Jesus directs us to Scripture, showing that God’s plan was unfolding, even in the darkest moment.
