Note that the question of the language of Jesus' cry of dereliction is
obscured by the many orthographic textual variants among the manuscripts.
Zahn's Introduction to the NT 15-16 has an informative discussion on these
variants (but thinks Hebrew was not spoken at that time). Particularly
interesting are Codex Bezae and the Syriac versions!
