How to affect when it should be heard the screams of the most heartbreaking loneliness spoken from the mouths of the suffering Person. The most horrible screams lonely ever spoken in this world. Not by a convict who spent the rest of his life in jail, not by a widow who no longer have anyone in his life, nor by a patient who lay helpless in a hospital.
This screams could be heard from a hill, from the cross, from the mouth of the Messiah who said quietly, "Elohim, Elohim,..lama sabakhtani?" (Verse 46). Scream quietly, but it represents incredible loneliness. Scream is more dense than the dark sky at that time. Jesus who has been put together by God in all eternity, is now riveted on the cross alone. Son of Man has endured so many sins of the world, to the point that God the Father turned away.
This is the fear of Jesus. Not because he had to bear the torture, beatings, beatings, or whip. Not because of a prank that will accept him in court. Not because he had to bear the pain when the scourging, or when both hands and his feet were nailed. His fear was when he learned that the Father in heaven will be turned away from Him for a moment, because of our sins that He endured.
Screams loneliness of Jesus on the cross it would be more than enough to represent His love to us. Never again we waste the love of Jesus who bore the penalty for our sins. Do not.
