MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME. Ps. 22:1 Then hear again at the cross. Mt. 27:46 The desolation, pathos and sorrow of that cry is like none other. Only from the mouth of the Lord Jesus could such an utterance be heard. Eternally the Word and the Father had been one. A unity that could only exist between the persons of the Godhead. Now, at Calvary, the Father who could not look upon sin must turn away and separate himself from His only begotten SON. There are not enough words in the languages of the world to express the agony, the suffering and extreme pain that was felt by both parties at that moment. Torn apart, emptied of a fellowship and companionship that had always been.
