The Gospel of Matthew tells us: "(About) three o'clock Jesus cried out in a loud voice, 'Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?' which means, 'My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?'" (Mt 27:46). This saying of the Lord raises the question of how the Lord inwardly related to the Father amid suffering. By implication, it raises the question of how you and I should relate to God amid our sufferings too. What is the Christlike way to suffer?

Commentary
- The Catholic Spirit
St. Paul spent a lot of time in his missionary preaching and teaching considering the purpose of the law. He was subject to the law of Rome as a Roman citizen. He was also a serious follower of the Jewish law of the covenant, which at its heart was God’s steadfast love for his people and their learning how to love God and neighbor. In his writings, St. Paul shared how his own following of Jewish law did not actually fulfill the purpose of the law of the covenant.
