Psalms 22


2. My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? [You are] far from my salvation [and] from the words of my moaning. ב. אֵלִי אֵלִי לָמָה עֲזַבְתָּנִי רָחוֹק מִישׁוּעָתִי דִּבְרֵי שַׁאֲגָתִי:
3. My God, I call out by day and You do not reply, and at night I do not keep silent. ג. אֱלֹהַי אֶקְרָא יוֹמָם וְלֹא תַעֲנֶה וְלַיְלָה וְלֹא דוּמִיָּה לִי:

7. But I am a worm and not a man; a reproach of man, despised by peoples. ז. וְאָנֹכִי תוֹלַעַת וְלֹא אִישׁ חֶרְפַּת אָדָם וּבְזוּי עָם:
8. All who see me will mock me; they will open their lips, they will shake their head. ח. כָּל רֹאַי יַלְעִגוּ לִי יַפְטִירוּ בְשָׂפָה יָנִיעוּ רֹאשׁ:
9. One should cast his trust upon the Lord, and He will rescue him; He will save him because He delights in him. ט. גֹּל אֶל יְהֹוָה יְפַלְּטֵהוּ יַצִּילֵהוּ כִּי חָפֵץ בּוֹ:
10. For You drew me from the womb; You made me secure on my mother's breasts. י. כִּי אַתָּה גֹחִי מִבָּטֶן מַבְטִיחִי עַל שְׁדֵי אִמִּי:
11. Upon You, I was cast from birth; from my mother's womb You are my God. יא. עָלֶיךָ הָשְׁלַכְתִּי מֵרָחֶם מִבֶּטֶן אִמִּי אֵלִי אָתָּה:
12. Do not distance Yourself from me, for distress is near; for there is none to help. יב. אַל תִּרְחַק מִמֶּנִּי כִּי צָרָה קְרוֹבָה כִּי אֵין עוֹזֵר:
13. Great bulls have surrounded me; the mighty ones of Bashan encompassed me. יג. סְבָבוּנִי פָּרִים רַבִּים אַבִּירֵי בָשָׁן כִּתְּרוּנִי:
14. They opened their mouth against me [like] a tearing, roaring lion. יד. פָּצוּ עָלַי פִּיהֶם אַרְיֵה טֹרֵף וְשֹׁאֵג:
15. I was spilled like water, and all my bones were separated; my heart was like wax, melting within my innards. טו. כַּמַּיִם נִשְׁפַּכְתִּי וְהִתְפָּרְדוּ כָּל עַצְמוֹתָי הָיָה לִבִּי כַּדּוֹנָג נָמֵס בְּתוֹךְ מֵעָי:
16. My strength became dried out like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaves to my palate; and You set me down in the dust of death. טז. יָבֵשׁ כַּחֶרֶשׂ | כֹּחִי וּלְשׁוֹנִי מֻדְבָּק מַלְקוֹחָי וְלַעֲפַר מָוֶת תִּשְׁפְּתֵנִי:
17. For dogs have surrounded me; a band of evildoers has encompassed me, like a lion, my hands and feet. יז. כִּי סְבָבוּנִי כְּלָבִים עֲדַת מְרֵעִים הִקִּיפוּנִי כָּאֲרִי יָדַי וְרַגְלָי:
18. I tell about all my bones. They look and gloat over me. יח. אֲסַפֵּר כָּל עַצְמוֹתָי הֵמָּה יַבִּיטוּ יִרְאוּ בִי:
19. They share my garments among themselves and cast lots for my raiment. יט. יְחַלְּקוּ בְגָדַי לָהֶם וְעַל לְבוּשִׁי יַפִּילוּ גוֹרָל:
20. But You, O Lord, do not distance Yourself; my strength, hasten to my assistance. כ. וְאַתָּה יְהֹוָה אַל תִּרְחָק אֱיָלוּתִי לְעֶזְרָתִי חוּשָׁה:
23. I will tell Your name to my brothers; in the midst of the congregation I will praise You. כג. אֲסַפְּרָה שִׁמְךָ לְאֶחָי בְּתוֹךְ קָהָל אֲהַלְלֶךָּ:
24. You who fear the Lord, praise Him; all the seed of Jacob, honor Him, and fear Him, all the seed of Israel. כד. יִרְאֵי יְהֹוָה | הַלְלוּהוּ כָּל זֶרַע יַעֲקֹב כַּבְּדוּהוּ וְגוּרוּ מִמֶּנוּ כָּל זֶרַע יִשְׂרָאֵל:

CHAMBER OF HEWN STONE

The place where Yeshua was condemned by the Sanhedrin was in a place called The Chamber of Hewn Stone or Promenade of the High Priest.  In the same place years earlier Abraham had offered his Son Isaac on Mt. Moriah.  This area was where the Sanhedrin would meet to conduct their affairs and pass judgments.

Now the Temple was destroyed by Titus in 70 A.D.  In year 30 A.D. was the year of Yeshua`s crucifixion. When Yeshua died their was a great earthquake causing the Temple floor to crack by the enormous Lintel that held the curtain in front of the HOLY of HOLIES.

Matt. 27:45-52 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.  And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?   And some of them stood there, when they heard it, said, This man calleth Elijah.  And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.   And the rest said, Let be; let us see whether Elijah cometh to save him.  And Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit.  And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake; and the rocks were rent;  and the tombs were opened; and many bodies of the saints that had fallen asleep were raised;  and coming forth out of the tombs after his resurrection they entered into the holy city and appeared unto many. Now the centurion, and they that were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that were done, feared exceedingly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
   
According to Jewish history there was a huge lintel of stone weighing 30 tons and 30 feet in length sitting above the Veil, in front of the Holy Place.   When the earth quaked at Yeshua`s death this stone lintel fell upon the curtain in front of the Holy Place, splintering the curtain(veil) from top to bottom.  Thus cracking the very foundation of the Temple, causing The Chamber of Hewn Stone, which was 40 yards away from the entrance to the Holy Place, to be unsafe.  The Sanhedrin abandoned this place in 30 A.D.
The Talmud says, “Forty years before the destruction of the Temple, the Sanhedrin was BANISHED (from the Chamber of Hewn Stone) and sat in the trading station (on the Temple Mount)” - (Shabbat 15a).
This beautiful promenade of the High Priest (Chamber of Hewn Stone), was never used in Condemning anyone ever again.  Yeshua`s took all of are condemnation when He stood condemned, though He was innocent.  Physically ,the Father saw to it that His precious Son`s blood was not shed in vain.  The physical Temple had become unsafe thus unihabitable, because the earthly structure was uninhabited.  Literally Yeshua`s body(symbolic of the Temple) was nailed to the cross.  His Spirit(had to leave His torn physical body/temple) to enter the Heavenly Tabernacle where His blood was placed (as a COVERING), once for ALL TIME and ALL MANKIND, upon the Mercy Seat in the Throne Room before the Father. Blood is physically very sticky and very hard to remove once it has dried.  It stains whatever it is placed upon. 

There is therefore NOW, NO CONDEMNATION to those who are in Christ Jesus to those who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit.
When the Law against adultery was thrown at the woman.  Yeshua said, “Neither do I condemn you, go and sin no more.”
Col. 2:14-15
14 having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross. 15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.


HALLELUJAH!!
