Hosanna
Hosanna (/hoʊˈzænə/) is an Aramaic liturgical word in Judaism and Christianity. In Judaism it is a cry expressing an appeal for God’s help. In Christianity it is a cry of praise.
The word hosanna (Latin osanna, Greek ὡσαννά, hōsanná) is from Hebrew הוֹשִׁיעָה־נָּא, הוֹשִׁיעָה נָּא hôšîʿâ-nā, and especially the short form הוֹשַׁע נָּא hôšâ-nā, and related to Aramaic ܐܘܿܫܲܥܢܵܐ (ʾōshaʿnā) meaning 'save, rescue, savior'.
Greek ὡσαννά (hōsanná) transliterates Hebrew הוֹשִׁיעָה־נָּא (hôšîʿā-nnāʾ) “save, we pray” (Psalm 118:25); originally a plea for help that later became a liturgical acclamation."Hosanna". Encyclopaedia Britannica.
In the Hebrew Bible it is used only in verses such as "help" or "save, I pray" (Psalms 118:25). However, in the Gospels it is used as a shout of jubilation, and this has given rise to complex discussions. In that context, the word Hosanna seems to be a "special kind of respect" given to the one who saves, saved, will save, or is saving now. If so Hosanna means "a special honor to the one who saves". The literal interpretation "Save, now!", based on Psalm 118:25, does not fully explain the occurrence of the word.
In Jewish liturgy, the word is applied specifically to the Hoshana Service, a cycle of prayers from which a selection is sung each morning during Sukkot, the Feast of Booths or Tabernacles. The complete cycle is sung on the seventh day of the festival, which is called Hoshana Rabbah (הושענא רבה, "Great Hoshana"). In Judaism it is always used in its original Hebrew form, הושע נא Hosha na or הושענא Hoshana.
Since Jesus and those welcoming him upon his entry into Jerusalem, some would interpret the cry of "Hosanna" in its proper meaning as a cry by the people for salvation and rescue.[citation needed]
"Hosanna" many interpret as a shout of praise or adoration made in recognition of the messiahship of Jesus on his entry into Jerusalem.
It is applied in numerous verses of the New Testament, including "Hosanna! blessed is the one who comes in the name of the LORD!" (Matthew 21:9,15; Mark 11:9–10; John 12:13), which forms part of the Sanctus prayer; "hosanna in the highest" (Mark 11.10); and "hosanna to the Son of David" (Matt 21:9). These quotations, however, are of words in the Jewish Psalm 118. Although not used in the book of Luke, the testimony of Jesus's entry into Jerusalem is recorded in Luke 19.
