I think that prayer was for both the flesh and spiritual crisis. "Eli Eli, lama sabachthani?" was definitely about the descent to purgatory. The illusion of the absence of God in purgatory feels like abandonment. Purgatory was rough on my guy. Xa ndithi uThixo uthumana kakhulu https://twitter.com/Khuze_Elikhulu/status/1308012262632968192

uThixo uzok'thuma ukuthi uyokokotelwa abo damnshit abangana dankie. Jesu definitely had some words for God when he got to heaven. Therapy was needed.
uThixo uzok'thuma uz'pholele. Akulande la uzigubhele khona. Ya morosa le taima.

What kind of net vir daai ding energy induces you to make a whole whale swallow me? No, man. Azithi mzala kuThixo.

Moses: "Kodwa, Thixo, ngiya ngi-ngi-ngingiza. Ngi-zo-zo khuluma kanjani noPha-a-a-aroh?"

Thixo: "Moses, ung'bangela umsindo. Ngithe landa abantu bami!"

Moses: "Kodwa Thi-thi-thi..."

Thixo: "Moses...?!"

On top of that, for character development I guess, God hardened Pharoah's heart. So noma whatever uMoses ayikhulunayo, uThixo ubusy ufasa intliziyo ka Pharaoh in the meantime. But he doesn't tell Moses that "Ungamangali lo bangafuni ngempahla yami. Nyenze ngamabom"

Moses went there, ethuke engubani. Ubusy ukhipha iinyoka es'khwameni adlala umanjik nezangoma za ka Pharaoh, meanwhile back at the ranch, uThixo wenza make sure ukuthi uyayibopha ayibophisise intliziyo ka Pharaoh.
I'd be so angry
