Psalm 22 is a powerful reflection for Good Friday, opening with the haunting cry, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”—words Jesus echoed on the cross centuries later, capturing raw human anguish and vulnerability. Written centuries before, this ancient hymn eerily predicts details of the crucifixion: the piercing of hands and feet, the casting of lots for clothing, and the mocking taunts of onlookers. For someone skeptical of faith, it’s a fascinating glimpse into a text that seems to foreshadow historical events with uncanny precision, inviting curiosity about its deeper meaning and the man Whose suffering it describes. Whether you see it as prophecy or poetry, it’s a moving meditation on pain, hope, and resilience that resonates universally.
Happy Good Friday!
