Contextual Overview
For the choir director: A psalm of David, to be sung to the tune "Doe of the Dawn."
My God, my God, why have you abandoned me? Why are you so far away when I groan for help? 2 Every day I call to you, my God, but you do not answer. Every night I lift my voice, but I find no relief. 3 Yet you are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel. 4 Our ancestors trusted in you, and you rescued them. 5 They cried out to you and were saved. They trusted in you and were never disgraced. 6 But I am a worm and not a man. I am scorned and despised by all! 7 Everyone who sees me mocks me. They sneer and shake their heads, saying, 8 "Is this the one who relies on the Lord ? Then let the Lord save him! If the Lord loves him so much, let the Lord rescue him!" 9 Yet you brought me safely from my mother's womb and led me to trust you at my mother's breast. 10 I was thrust into your arms at my birth. You have been my God from the moment I was born.Bible Verse Review

Gill's Notes on the Bible
O my God, I cry in the daytime,.... In the time of his suffering on the cross, which was in the daytime:
but thou hearest me not; and yet he was always heard, John 11:41; though he was not saved from dying, yet he was quickly delivered from the power of death, and so was heard in that he feared, Hebrews 5:7;
and in the night season: in the night in which he was in the garden, sorrowing and praying, the night in which he was betrayed and was apprehended; and though the natural desires of his human soul were not heard and answered, that the cup might pass from him, yet his prayer in submission to the will of God was: moreover, the daytime and night season may design the incessant and continual prayer of Christ; he prayed always, night and day:
and am not silent; but continue to pray, though as yet seemingly not heard and answered; or there is "no silence to me" w; that is, no rest from sorrow and pain; or "no likeness to me" x, there are none like me, no sorrow like my sorrow, as in Lamentations 1:12.
w לא דמיה לי "non est silentium mihi", Pagninus, Montanus, Junius Tremellius "intermissio", Cocceius; "quies", Gejerus; "cessatio, quies, aut silentium", Michaelis. x "Non est mihi similitudo", Gussetius, p. 193.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
O my God, I cry in the daytime - This, in connection with what is said at the close of the verse, “and in the night-season,” means that his cry was incessant or constant. See the notes at Psalms 1:2. The whole expression denotes that his prayer or cry was continuous, but that it was not heard. As applicable to the Redeemer it refers not merely to the moment when he uttered the cry as stated in Psalms 22:1, but to the continuous sufferings which he endured as if forsaken by God and men. His life in general was of that description. The whole series of sorrows and trials through which he passed was as if he were forsaken by God; as if he uttered a long continuous cry, day and night, and was not heard.
But thou hearest not - Thou dost not “answer” me. It is as if my prayers were not heard. God “hears” every cry; but the answer to a prayer is sometimes withheld or delayed, as if he did not hear the voice of the suppliant. Compare the notes at Daniel 10:12-13. So it was with the Redeemer. He was permitted to suffer without being rescued by divine power, as if his prayers had not been heard. God seemed to disregard his supplications.
And in the night-season - As explained above, this means “constantly.” It was literally true, however, that the Redeemer’s most intense and earnest prayer was uttered in the night-season, in the garden of Gethsemane.
And am not silent - Margin, “there is no silence to me.” Hebrew: “There is not silence to me.” The idea is, that he prayed or cried incessantly. He was never silent. All this denotes intense and continuous supplication, supplication that came from the deepest anguish of the soul, but which was unheard and unanswered. If Christ experienced this, who may not?
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 22:2. I cry in the day-time, and in the night-season — This seems to be David's own experience; and the words seem to refer to his own case alone. Though I am not heard, and thou appearest to forget or abandon me; yet I continue to cry both day and night after thy salvation.
