The words are taken directly from the opening of Psalm 22,15 to which we have already seen allusions in vv. 35–36, 39, 43; the psalm expresses the spiritual desolation of a man who continues to trust and to appeal to God in spite of the fact that his ungodly opponents mock and persecute him with impunity. In the end, the psalm turns to joyful thanksgiving for deliverance in vv. 22–31, and some interpreters have suggested that it is the latter part of the psalm that Jesus has in mind as well as its traumatic beginning, so that this is in effect a shout of defiant trust in the God whom he fully expects to rescue him | The words "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" are taken directly from the opening of Psalm 22,15 to which we have already seen allusions in vv. 35–36, 39, 43; the psalm expresses the spiritual desolation of a man who continues to trust and to appeal to God in spite of the fact that his ungodly opponents mock and persecute him with impunity.

==Psalm 22== | |||
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? | |||
Why are you so vfar from saving me, from the words of my wgroaning? | |||
2 O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer, and by night, but I find no rest. | |||
3 Yet you are holy, enthroned on athe praises1 of Israel. | |||
4 In you our fathers trusted; they trusted, and you delivered them. | |||
5 To you they cried and were rescued; in you they trusted and were not put to shame. | |||
6 But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by mankind and despised by the people. | |||
7 All who see me mock me; they make mouths at me; they wag their heads; | |||
8 “He trusts in the LORD; let him deliver him; let him rescue him, for he delights in him!” | |||
... | |||
12 Many bulls encompass me; strong bulls of Bashan surround me; | |||
13 they open wide their mouths at me, like a ravening and roaring lion. | |||
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint; my heart is like wax; it is melted within my breast; | |||
15 my strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to my jaws; you lay me in the dust of death. | |||
16 For dogs encompass me; a company of evildoers encircles me; they have pierced my hands and feet— | |||
17 I can count all my bones — they stare and gloat over me; | |||
18 cthey divide my garments among them, | |||
and for my clothing they cast lots. | |||
19 But you, O LORD, ndo not be far off! | |||
O you my help, dcome quickly to my aid! | |||
20 Deliver my soul from the sword, | |||
my precious life from the power of ethe dog! | |||
21 Save me from fthe mouth of the lion! | |||
You have rescued3 me from the horns of gthe wild oxen! | |||
22 hI will tell of your name to my ibrothers; | |||
in the midst of the congregation I will praise you: | |||
23 You who jfear the LORD, praise him! | |||
All you offspring of Jacob, kglorify him, | |||
and stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel! | |||
24 For he has not despised or abhorred | |||
the affliction of lthe afflicted, | |||
and he has not mhidden his face from him, | |||
but has heard, when he ncried to him. | |||
25 From you comes my praise in the great ocongregation; | |||
my pvows I will qperform before those who fear him. | |||
26 rThe afflicted4 shall seat and be satisfied; | |||
those who seek him shall praise the LORD! | |||
May your hearts tlive forever! | |||
27 All uthe ends of the earth shall remember | |||
and turn to the LORD, | |||
and all vthe families of the nations | |||
shall worship before you. | |||
28 For wkingship belongs to the LORD, | |||
and he rules over the nations. | |||
29 All xthe prosperous of the earth eat and worship; | |||
before him shall ybow all who go down to the dust, | |||
even the one who could not zkeep himself alive. | |||
30 Posterity shall serve him; | |||
it shall be told of the Lord to the coming ageneration; | |||
31 they shall bcome and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet cunborn, | |||
that he has done it. | |||
