This verse contains the fourth memorable saying of Christ upon the Cross.1 Words able to rend the hardest heart in the world. It is the voice of the Son of God in an agony. His sufferings were great, very great before, but never in that extremity as now; When this heaven-rending and heart-melting out-cry brake from him upon the Cross, Eli, Eli lamasabachtani. In which words are considerable, the time, matter and manner of this his sad complaint.
