“I am poured out like water, and all my bones are disjointed. My heart is like wax; it melts away within me.”

Study note

Psalms 22 begins with the cry Jesus later voiced on the cross, and its middle section describes the psalmist's suffering in vivid physical terms. Written by David in a moment of extreme distress, it became one of the psalms the early church read as pointing to Christ's passion.
