Psalm 22 is probably one of the best known Psalms for any reader of the New Testament because of its Passion prophecies. Of the 13 major Old Testament texts that are quoted in the 4 Gospels, 9 of them come from the Psalms and 5 of those 9 from Psalm 22. I think the best known is “Eloi, eloi, lama sabachthani.”

David was just in a seriously bad spot during these couple chapters of Psalms. I wish there were links to stories that explained what was going on when he wrote specific Psalms.
ReplyDeleteI love this modern-day song's take on Psalm 23

I've just come across your blog via a search for images of Psalm 22 for some research I'm doing. I really like this picture - is there any chance you could let me know who it is by or where it is from?
