Show Notes

Jesus' words from the cross, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani,” have confused Bible students for years. Many think that Jesus either was, or thought he was, forsaken by God. In this teaching we learn that Jesus Christ was reciting part of Psalm 22, trying to jar people into understanding that prophecy was being fulfilled before their eyes. 

Verses: Matt. 26:1-5, 50-54; 27:41-43, 45-50; Mark 10:32-34; John 13:25-27; 16:32; 19:28-30, 36; Isa. 52:14, 53:3-5; Ps. 22:1-31; Exod. 25:4; Heb. 2:11 

Teacher: John Schoenheit
