VERSE 3

OF

THE PRAYER

“But You are enthroned as the Holy One
the One Whom Israel praises.”

(The Psalm-22, Verse: 3)

This Verse is clarifying the following points:-

Jesus is explaining here the absolute oneness of GOD and he is telling that there is no god beside the one GOD dominant and sovereign-Lord of the earth and the heavens. GOD has no partner and GOD is the All-alone King of the worlds. And GOD, is the Lord of Jesus. 

GOD is the Lord Whose praises are recited by Israel. GOD is the originator of Torah (the law of Jacob & Moses) including the Ten Commandments. And GOD has effected the 1st Commandment in the following words:-

“Worship no god but Me. Do not make for yourself images of anything in heaven or on earth or in the water under the earth.” 

The same GOD is the GOD of Jesus Who was the GOD of Jacob and Moses (peace & blessings of GOD be upon all). The one GOD, beside Whom, there is no god at all. 

Jesus is not the inventor of Trinity. Nor he is presenting him as one of three gods. Nor he is telling the one GOD as the third of the three gods. Instead, he is openly rejecting the concept of Trinity, which stands for the following three gods.

1. The GOD of Moses____ Jehovah

2. The word of GOD_____ Jesus

3. Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost.

Therefore, Trinity is a baseless concept in terms of the Verse under reference, the verse 3 of the prayer. 

Torah says,

“Remember This! The Lord and the Lord alone___ is our GOD.
Love the Lord your GOD with all your heart,
With all your soul, and with all your strength.”

(Deut, Chapter 6, Verses: 4 & 5) 

“Fear the Lord your GOD, worship only GOD,
and make your promises in GOD’s name alone.
Do not worship other gods,
Any of the gods of the people around you.
If you do worship other gods,
The Lord’s anger will come against you
Like fire and will destroy you completely,
Because the Lord your GOD,
Who is present with you, tolerates no rivals.”

(Deut, Chapter 6, Verses: 13 to 15) 

“GOD is a great GOD and (only) one to be feared.”

(Deut, Chapter 7, Verse: 21)
