CHRISTIAN REFRESHER; MARK 15; 34, 37, 39
AND at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice saying, Eliot, Eliot, lamasabachthani? Which is being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thy forsaken me? (37) And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.(39) And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.
