https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkcKQmr7kRc I don't think Psalm 22 was chosen due to any association with David, it was chosen for its content. imho Mark 6 is particularly interesting because Herod receives his title "King" from the narrator at the very moment when he begins to talk like K...

JW : Per The Skeptical Critical Commentary the first Paulicope in GMark is 1:4-1:8. It's generally accepted that GMark is Chrestfilled with chiasms.
