HOSANNA

A word of joyful acclamation in Hebrew, signifying save now. The people cried Hosanna as Jesus entered in triumph into Jerusalem; that is, they thus invoked the blessings of heaven on him as the Messiah, Mt 21:9. This was also a customary acclamation at the joyful feast of tabernacles, in which the Jews repeated Ps 118:25,26.
