"My God, my God, why have You forsaken Me?" was Jesus' famous cry shortly before He died. To answer this question, we review the events that led up to this climax and explore the reasons why Jesus died. Weaving through the pages of prophecy and poetry in the Bible, we find revealing texts that elucidate a master plan and momentous triumph from this most tragic of circumstances.
