NONE.filter - rwp Forsaken:

rwp@2Corinthians:4:9 @{Forsaken} (\egkataleipomenoi\). Double compound of old verb \eg-kata-leip\, to leave behind, to leave in the lurch. {Smitten down} (\kataballomenoi\). As if overtaken. {Destroyed} (\apollumenoi\). Perishing as in verse 3|. Was Paul referring to Lystra when the Jews stoned him and thought him dead?

rwp@Mark:15:33 @{The sixth hour} (\hras hekts\). That is, noon (Jewish time), as the third hour was nine A.M. (Mark:15:25|). See on ¯Matthew:27:45| for discussion. Given also by strkjv@Luke:23:44|. Mark gives the Aramaic transliteration as does B in strkjv@Matthew:27:45|, which see for discussion. {Forsaken} (\egkatelipes\). Some MSS. give \neidisas\ (reproached). We are not able to enter into the fulness of the desolation felt by Jesus at this moment as the Father regarded him as sin (2Corinthians:5:21|). This desolation was the deepest suffering. He did not cease to be the Son of God. That would be impossible.

rwp@Matthew:27:46 @{My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?} (\Thee mou, thee mou, hina ti me egkatelipes;\). Matthew first transliterates the Aramaic, according to the Vatican manuscript (B), the words used by Jesus: _Eli, eli, lema sabachthanei_; Some of the MSS. give the transliteration of these words from strkjv@Psalms:22:1| in the Hebrew (_Eli, Eli, lama Zaphthanei_). This is the only one of the seven sayings of Christ on the Cross given by Mark and Matthew. The other six occur in Luke and John. This is the only sentence of any length in Aramaic preserved in Matthew, though he has Aramaic words like amen, corban, mammon, pascha, raca, Satan, Golgotha. The so-called Gospel of Peter preserves this saying in a Docetic (Cerinthian) form: "My power, my power, thou hast forsaken me!" The Cerinthian Gnostics held that the _aeon_ Christ came on the man Jesus at his baptism and left him here on the Cross so that only the man Jesus died. Nothing from Jesus so well illustrates the depth of his suffering of soul as he felt himself regarded as sin though sinless (2Corinthians:5:21|). strkjv@John:3:16| comes to our relief here as we see the Son of God bearing the sin of the world. This cry of desolation comes at the close of the three hours of darkness.
