Psalm 38 David is suffering because of his own sin and the sinfulness of his enemies. Since Adam and Eve, every human being lives in this struggle against their own sinfulness and the sinfulness of others. It is an inescapable holy war. And so it is no surprise that we hear David so often crying out to God about his pain and suffering. And even though Jesus did not ever sin and even though Jesus lived a perfect life, Jesus did bear our sins on the cross, and the weight of bearing our sins crushed Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:21, Isaiah 53:4-6, 1 Peter 3:18). Jesus suffered because of sin. Sin is an offence against God; Jesus knew this and felt deeply for the honour of God, His Father and Himself and the Spirit. Sin, like Satan, kills, steals, and destroys. So the weight of sin for the sinner is even greater for Jesus who bore it as though a sinner and as one keenly aware of the totality of the offence and havoc it wreaks on all things--even though Jesus was totally innocent.
