Thy fierce wrath goeth over me; thy terrors have cut me off.
Psalm 88:16 foretells Christ taking the sinner's place to bear the sins of the whole world. The fierce wrath passing over him and the terrors cutting him off describe the overwhelming experience of separation from the Father as the bearer of sin. In that separation He faced God's hatred of sin while the Father's expressions of love and approval were withdrawn from Him. The anguish of that condition pressed upon Him until it culminated in His death, which was death from a broken heart.
