Understand what happened on a Good Friday:
According to the Gospels, Jesus was nailed to the cross on Friday at noon, dying at "the ninth hour", or three in the afternoon. It was customary to place a plaque at the feet of the crucified, so that everyone would know the reason for the condemnation. The sign at the feet of the Messiah read: "Jesus, Nazarene, King of the Jews" (in Latin: INRI - Iesus, Nazarenus, Rex Iudaeorum). At the foot of the cross is Mary, her head turned upwards.
A few hours later, Jesus, with dry lips, wished for water. His mother understands and asks the soldier to help her. Instead of water, they offer drops of vinegar. Suddenly, Jesus pronounces in Aramaic: Eli, Eli, lamma sabacthani?, which means: "My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?" These are the words that open Psalm 21(22). For Eliphas Levi, the correct translation would be "My God, my God, how much you glorify me!"
For three hours Mary suffered with Jesus. Kneeling, she embraced the cross and tenderly kissed her son's wounded feet. Then she heard Jesus say, "It is finished. Father, into your hands I commend my spirit"; then He gave a great cry, expired, reclined His head and died, as Mark informs.
The Gospels relate that at that moment an earthquake shook the earth and a dark darkness covered Palestine. They all fled, saying, "This was indeed the son of God!" At 6 pm, Jesus, considered dead, was taken down from the cross. Maria fainted, being supported by those who were close. Afterwards, she received her dead son's body in her lap, warming it in her heart.
They wrapped the Messiah in a linen sheet and the image of the Savior was engraved on it. Maria, numb before the event, shelters her dead son in her lap. She embraces him with a vehement gesture of love and lies down beside him. She envelops him in an attempt to bring him close to her soul. With passion, she draws Jesus to her, as if she, the procreator of life, wanted to challenge God for having imposed this suffering on them.
Before having her son taken into the darkness of the grave, Mary caressed Jesus' face one last time.
