Psalm 22:1,7-8,14-16,18 stands as one of the Bible’s most striking Messianic prophecies. Written centuries before Christ, David vividly describes the crucifixion: the cry of abandonment (“My God, why have you forsaken me?”), public mockery, pierced hands and feet, and soldiers dividing garments by casting lots. These precise details find startling fulfillment in Jesus’ passion on the cross, revealing God’s redemptive plan foretold in Scripture.
