Psalm 22:13 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 22:13

They gaped upon me [with] their mouths
Either by way of derision and contempt, ( Job 16:10 ) ; or belching out blasphemy against him, or rather, with the greatest vehemency, crying out "Crucify him, crucify him", ( Luke 23:21 ) ( John 19:6 ) ; and this they did

[as] a ravening and roaring lion,
when it has got its prey and rejoices, ( Amos 3:4 ) ; and being in such hands, and encompassed about with such enemies, as Christ was in the garden, in the high priest's hall, and in Pilate's judgment hall, is a third reason or argument used by him with God his Father, to be near to him and not far from him.

Psalm 22:13 In-Context

11 Sei nicht ferne von mir, denn Angst ist nahe; denn es ist hier kein Helfer.
12 Große Farren haben mich umgeben, gewaltige Stiere haben mich umringt.
13 Ihren Rachen sperren sie auf gegen mich wie ein brüllender und reißender Löwe.
14 Ich bin ausgeschüttet wie Wasser, alle meine Gebeine haben sich zertrennt; mein Herz ist in meinem Leibe wie zerschmolzen Wachs.
15 Meine Kräfte sind vertrocknet wie eine Scherbe, und meine Zunge klebt an meinem Gaumen, und du legst mich in des Todes Staub.
