Jesus Crucified and Psalm 22

A primary reason why Christians know that Jesus of Nazareth is the Messiah, the Promised Anointed One, the Redeemer, is the predicted prophecies that are fulfilled in his life. Psalm 22 is a detailed picture of Jesus' sufferings on the cross. Both Matthew and John relate this in their accounts. Matthew records the behavior of people and Jesus' inner experiences of thought and emotional pain as well as his bodily suffering. Listen to the record of Psalm 22 with Matthew 27 and Jesus' own prophecy in Matthew 20.
