The Lament of the King

Most Christians are familiar with Jesus’s famous cry of dereliction from the cross. Many are aware that these words, cried aloud in Aramaic, are drawn directly from the first line of Psalm 22. Less realize how thoroughly Matthew’s account of the crucifixion is tied to the psalm or the ways in which his gospel is shaped by lament.
