Generation

Psalm 22 does not teach about baptism. This psalm is a lament of David that prophetically points to Christ's suffering on the cross (as seen in verses like Psalm 22:1, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" and 22:16-18 describing pierced hands and feet). Baptism as a Christian ordinance is not mentioned or addressed in this psalm.
