SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:17

Contar puedo todos mis huesos; ellos miran, me consideran.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 21:17

Verse 17. I may tell all my bones ] This may refer to the violent extension of his body when the whole of its weight hung upon the nails which attached his hands to the transverse beam of the cross. The body being thus extended, the principal bones became prominent, and easily discernible.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 11-21 - In these verses we have Christ suffering, and Christ praying; by whic we are directed to look for crosses, and to look up to God under them The very manner of Christ's death is described, though not in use amon the Jews. They pierced his hands and his feet, which were nailed to the accursed tree, and his whole body was left so to hang as to suffer the most severe pain and torture. His natural force failed, being wasted by the fire of Divine wrath preying upon his spirits. Who then can stan before God's anger? or who knows the power of it? The life of the sinner was forfeited, and the life of the Sacrifice must be the ranso for it. Our Lord Jesus was stripped, when he was crucified, that he might clothe us with the robe of his righteousness. Thus it wa written, therefore thus it behoved Christ to suffer. Let all thi confirm our faith in him as the true Messiah, and excite our love to him as the best of friends, who loved us, and suffered all this for us Christ in his agony prayed, prayed earnestly, prayed that the cup migh pass from him. When we cannot rejoice in God as our song, yet let u stay ourselves upon him as our strength; and take the comfort of spiritual supports, when we cannot have spiritual delights. He prays to be delivered from the Divine wrath. He that has delivered, dot deliver, and will do so. We should think upon the sufferings an resurrection of Christ, till we feel in our souls the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings.
