Eloi, Eloi … why have You forsaken me: Jesus cried out loudly. Mark records his words in Aramaic (the language Jesus spoke) and then gives the meaning in Greek.
"My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?": Jesus is quoting Psalm 22:1. This statement should be understood by considering Mark 14:27, Psalm 22, Isaiah 53:10, 2 Corinthians 5:21, and Galatians 3:13. At this moment, God’s purpose was being fulfilled. Jesus was giving his life as “a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45).
