I just finished reading Pope Benedict XVI's second volume on Jesus of Nazareth (Holy Week). I can't remember the last time I read such a deeply sublime & insightful book. It is an absolutely indispensable read.

In his agonizing cry ("My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"), Jesus is not despairing of God. He is enduring the crushing weight of the world’s blackest sin. He quoted Psalm 22 which begins in horror, but ends in hope.
