David' suffering takes on greater depth as Jesus identifies literally with the way David describes his suffering in metaphorical language. Whatever was happening to him, we know Jesus used David's words and applied them to the crucifixion and resurrection. David and Jesus show us that asking God 'Why?' when we don't understand what he's doing is okay. Who else can answer that? But often we have to wait for that answer.
