I must admit, I had to go look up exactly what ‘hosanna,” means. Jews apparently use it as plea for divine aid. Christians cry it as praise for the salvation which has already come. Like most things, it gets more complicated the deeper you dig. But you knew all of that already, Didn’t you? Thanks for pointing down that rabbit hole.
Beautiful R.H. this totally reflects the true meaning of Hosanna! ✨🙏💜🤗
"Hosanna" translates to "save us now," signifying that "salvation is upon us!" It is found only one place in the Old Testament Psalms 118:25 “Save now, I beseech thee, O Lord: O Lord, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.”
It is not merely a cry of desperation; it also acknowledges God's past faithfulness and an invitation to the Messiah to bring victory and abundance.
Reminds me of 2 songs:
March of Cambreath
The Berserker Song
AHHHH 💖 Thank you! I had to go look up both as I knew neither. Now I wish to endlessly Filk!
I know, right?
Leslie Fish, Mercedes Lackey, Heather Alexander....and many more! Love them all!
Evocative.
Thank you Ray💖I hope it evocative of something awesome, like a Moose bellowing...
or perhaps a quacking duck at least🤭
