Psalms 22:11 (KJV)

Commentary on Psalms 22:11

The plea 'be not far from me' reflects the agony of perceived divine distance when 'trouble is near' and 'there is none to help.' This captures Christ's experience on the cross—abandoned by disciples, mocked by crowds, and (for a time) forsaken by the Father. Reformed theology sees this as the nadir of Christ's humiliation: the eternal Son experienced the ultimate loneliness of sin-bearing. His cry of dereliction purchased believers' eternal intimacy with God.
