AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 27:46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud [agonized] voice, "ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?" that is, "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?" [Ps 22:1] |
Bible Question (short): what did "why have U forsaken me" mean? |
Question (full): Radioman2, Do you interpret Jesus' question of "why have you forsaken me" to mean that He was being abandoned by God? I have read other members of this forum state that they believe Jesus was calling attention to Psalm 22 as a last-ditch attempt to reach the on-lookers and teach them what was happening. What do you think? Thanks, reilly |
