While bleeding and suffocating on a cruel cross, Jesus invokes Scripture when He cries out, "My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?!" Truly, our Lord's agony was both physical and spiritual in that horrendous moment! But from where did Jesus lift the passage He cited? Answer: Psalm 22:1. The whole Psalm and its 31 verses were authored by King David some 1,000 years before Christ. So Who does David seem to be writing about? It's pretty obvious it's about the future Messiah, Jesus. And if it's about Jesus, what is the context? Clearly it's the cross! But if David is writing about an event a thousand years in his future, and about a form of execution that hadn't even been invented yet, how does David pull that off? Was it a lucky guess or by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit? And if by the Holy Spirit, do these ancient words, now 3,000 years old, still have any relevance and potency for us in the here and now?
