Matthew 27:46

Around the ninth hour (three o'clock), Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachtani?" This means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me (left me helpless)?"
[Jesus quoted from Psalm 22:2 in his native language, Aramaic. The repetition of "My God, my God" describes a strong emotional involvement. Since this verse is the first sentence of the psalm, it also serves as a title for the entire psalm. When Jesus utters these words, it carries associations to the entire content. Not only the anguish at the beginning of the psalm, but also the turning point in Ps. 22:22 "You hear my prayer" and God's intervention in the last part with the concluding line in Ps. 22:32 "he has done it," which harmonizes with Jesus' last words on the cross, "it is finished," see John 19:30.]
