Psalm 22:1 - "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" In quoting the first line, Jesus invokes this entire psalm and applies to Himself. Matthew 27:46; Mark 15:34.
God turned His face away from Jesus because our sin was upon Him. Habakkuk 1:3; II Corinthians 5:21.
This entire psalm is fulfilled in Christ's crucifiction. If your Bible does not have center column cross references, find one that does and transfer to your margin any references to the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke or John.
Selected references and additional notes:
Verse 6 - Isaiah 53:3.
Verse 14 - I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
"Poured out like water" - the sweat in Luke 22:44. And "my heart is like wax..." The pericardium burst in John 19:34.
"Bones out of joint" - as on the cross. Out of joint but not broken, John 19:36.
Verse 22 - Quoted as if spoken by Jesus, Hebrews 2:12.
