‏ Psalms 22:3-5

3. Still he not only refrains from charging God foolishly, but evinces his confidence in God by appealing to Him.

thou art holy--or possessed of all the attributes which encourage trust, and the right object of the praises of the Church: hence the sufferer need not despair.

4-5. Past experience of God's people is a ground of trust. The mention of "our fathers" does not destroy the applicability of the words as the language of our Saviour's human nature.
