woah

If you want to make a mind-blowing prophetic connection, read Psalms 22 in conjunction with Mark 15:34 and consider the following:

Jesus cried out from the cross, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which is, being interpreted, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" Many people believe that this was expressive of his lamentation at the Lord turning away from Christ as he took on the sins of the world.
However, there may be an alternative explanation.

Please take the time to now read Psalms 22 in its entirety:

The Pharisees were standing around the base of the crucifixion site and heard these words spoken. These were men who had dedicated their lives to memorizing the Hebrew scriptures. Although Jesus did not have the strength to recite every piece of this prophecy that was recorded over 1000 years prior, they were able to fill in the blanks.

Mark 15:
"38
And the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. 39 And when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that in this way he breathed his last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”"
