Matthew 27:46
“About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” That is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?””
This passage is from Matthew's Gospel, written to a Jewish-Christian audience in the late first century. It describes the final moments of Jesus' life, specifically his cry from the cross, which directly quotes the opening line of Psalm 22.
