Mark 15:34
15:34 a Eloi, Eloi ... why have you abandoned me: Jesus’ loud cry is reported in its original Aramaic and then translated for Greek readers.• “My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?” Jesus quotes Ps 22:1 b. This saying is best interpreted in light of Mark 14:27 c; Ps 22 d; Isa 53:10 e; 2 Cor 5:21 f; and Gal 3:13 g. The divine purpose in Jesus’ becoming a ransom for many (Mark 10:45 h) was now being realized.
