40 Days Commentary | Fri 3/31 | Ps. 22:7–8

Posted 31 March 2017

The thirty-first day of our commentary from the International Formation house in Ann Arbor, MI following our Meditations for the 40 Days. John Yocum comments on Psalm 22.

Christ is the one God delights in; here that truth is spoken as a taunt during his crucifixion (see the fulfillment in Matthew 27:43), and Christ’s trust was vindicated in the resurrection.

⁷ All who see me mock at me, they make mouths at me, they wag their heads; ⁸ “He committed his cause to the LORD; let him deliver him, let him rescue him, for he delights in him!” – Psa 22:7-8 RSV
