Thank you Cydalee ! 3/7 it is !

Psalm 22 and the crucifixion are deeply interlinked. Christ quotes from it during His Passion and the accounts of the gospels make several other allusions to it. Yet one line of the psalm doesn’t sit well with us:

But I am a worm, not a man,
scorned by men, despised by the people.

As uncomfortable as it might make us, we can now see why Christ identified Himself with the worm on the cross. For, on the cross, He confronted the reality of our death and everything that it entails. So total is this identification that Christ is compared to the very worms that consume the flesh of the dead. The worm then represents the final humiliation of the Incarnation.
