1. The Eternal Trinity. Never separated.
Father

The Separation view that has God the Father abandoning His Son
on the cross has been weighed and found wanting

2. Definition of the Trinity
III. In the unity of the Godhead there be three Persons of one substance, power,
and eternity: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost. The Father is
of none, neither begotten nor proceeding; the Son is eternally begotten of the Father;
the Holy Ghost eternally proceeding from the Father and the Son.
Westminster Confession of Faith chapter 2 section 3.
There is no room here for 3-6 hours of separation
between the Father and Son. It plainly states they were of
one substance for all eternity.

During the crucifixion the
Father allegedly couldn’t
stomach sin so He broke
away for 3-6 hours.
Father
Holy Spirit
Son
What happened to the ETERNAL UNDIVIDED Trinity? Also, proponents
of the separation view never state whether the Holy Spirit

If you believe the Trinity stayed together and that Jesus’ human nature experienced abandonment, there are still
several problems/questions. I don't know how "experiencing the emotion of abandonment" can be meaningful unless either of those two cases are true (actually being abandoned or actually failing to have faith that one is not abandoned), but I'm willing to allow that someone might find that kind of reasoning is preferable to giving up a long held, popular
idea that makes one feel like Jesus really knows what I feel like.

5. different from the “afflicted one” (who is Jesus).
The Answer
Read all of Psalm 22 especially verse 24 “For he has not despised or disdained the suffering of the afflicted one; he has not hidden his face from him but has listened to his cry for help.” The “He” (the Father) in the verse is clearly
different from the “afflicted one” (who is Jesus).
John 16:32 "But a time is coming, and has come, when you will be scattered, each
to his own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is
with me.
I do not believe John 16:32 is merely talking about the arrest of Jesus in
the Garden.
