Hosanna

I have been singing this song "Hosanna" by Hillsong for over a month or so but I never really looked up the meaning. I might be dumb but here is the definitions if you are interested.

A cry of praise or adoration (to God)

Literally means “save please” or “save now.” The crowd cried this at Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, a week before they demanded to crucify Him.

The word HOSANNA is an expression meaning ‘Save, I (we) pray.” Psalm 118:25 was commonly used in the Feast of Tabernacles and was filled with messianic expectations of deliverance. This fact highlights that those who shouted this expression to Jesus on his entry into Jerusalem (Mathew 21:1-10), before his crucifixion, where hoping for a political deliverance. The saving and deliverance they needed was accomplished through a death rather than a political revolt.
