Psalm 22 begins with the agonizing cry, “My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?” David describes rejection, mockery, suffering, and apparent abandonment—language that Jesus would take upon His own lips at the cross. Yet the psalm does not end in defeat. Suffering gives way to praise, worldwide worship, and the proclamation of God’s righteousness to generations yet unborn. Psalm 23 brings us from suffering into the care of the Shepherd. The LORD leads, restores, protects, prepares a table in the presence of enemies, and carries His people through the valley of the shadow of death. Jesus fulfills this hope as the Good Shepherd who lays down His life for the sheep and leads them into everlasting life. Psalm 24 completes the movement with the arrival of the King of Glory. The suffering King has not been defeated. The Shepherd has not abandoned His flock. The rightful King enters in triumph, and the gates are commanded to open before Him. Together, Psalms 22–24 move from the forsaken cry, through the Shepherd’s care, to the everlasting reign of the King of Glory. In this episode of Modern Mind, Ancient Book, discover how these three psalms reveal one unified hope fulfilled in Jesus: the King who suffered for His people, shepherds them through every valley, and will reign forever.
