Psalms 22:17

“And hide not thy face from thy servant, etc.] This is a character that is frequently given to Christ as Mediator; he is a servant of God’s choosing, calling, and appointing; of his sending, bringing forth, and supporting; who is an obedient, diligent, righteous, and prudent one; who always reverenced and honoured him whose servant he was, (<234201>Isaiah 42:1 43:10 49:1,3 52:13 53:11 <380308>Zechariah 3:8); now, when he was on the cross, suffering in the room and stead of his people, his Father hid his face from him; which he here deprecates, and desires he would not continue to do, seeing he was his servant, now doing his service, and about to finish it, even the great work of man’s…”

“His emaciated frame, itself an item of his misery, is rendered more so as the object of delighted contemplation to his enemies. The verbs, "look" and "stare," often occur as suggestive of feelings of satisfaction (compare Psa 27:13; Psa 54:7; Psa 118:7).”

“May tell - By my being stretched out upon the cross. Psalms 22:18”

“22:17-18 I can count all my bones: The psalmist’s enemies have utterly shamed him by taking his garments. Jesus also suffered this disgrace (see Matt 27:35). • stare at me and gloat: Enemies make the psalmist the object of their scorn (see Pss 35:24, 26; 38:16; 55:3; cp. 59:10). • throw dice: Literally cast lots. The casting of lots was sometimes a way for godly people to find God’s direction (Lev 16:8; Num 27:21; Acts 1:24-26). Here, the lots are thrown simply as a game of chance. The soldiers threw dice for Jesus’ clothing after the crucifixion (Matt 27:35; Mark 15:24; Luke 23:34; John 19:24).”
