At about three o'clock. Jesus has been on the cross about six hours. Jesus cried with a loud shout. Some think that God had to briefly withdraw his "presence" from Christ, so he could experience death. Some think the fact that Jesus "shared our sin" (2 Corinthians 5:21) caused God to briefly turn his back on Jesus as he held the world's sin on the cross. The words show that Jesus felt he hung on the cross alone, yet he calls: "My God, My God."
