Those who went in front and those who followed cried out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
In this verse the crowds cry out in celebration as Jesus Christ enters Jerusalem, shouting “Hosanna!* Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” This moment reveals both joy and expectation, people welcoming a Savior, yet not fully understanding His mission. It reminds us to praise God wholeheartedly, even when we don’t yet see the full picture of His plan.
*Hosanna:
- The word Hosanna comes from Hebrew: “hoshia na”, which means “save us now”, “please save.” or “help us, we pray”.Over time, especially in worship, it also became a joyful expression meaning “salvation has come!” or “praise to the Savior.”
- It’s a word that holds both desperation and hope, need and faith, all at the same time.
