Forsaken by God

Was Jesus truly forsaken of God? He said, "My God, My God," why have you forsaken Me?" If we are to take His words seriously, then we must say, yes, in some sense He was forsaken. The alernative would be to attribute confusion or error or pretense to Jesus. The truth is that God had to forsake Jesus because God hates sin and cannot look upon it with favor, and Jesus became sin on the cross.
