Etymology
The word HOSANNA is an exclamation of praise or adoration of God or the MESSIAH. It originates with the HEBREW phrase hôšîʿâ-nāʾ (imperative plus percative particle) meaning "save, now," mentioned in the Psalms (cf. Psalms 118:25). It is also found in scripture twelve times in scripture outside of the Old Testament: five times in the New Testament (Matthew 21:9, 15; Mark 11:9, 10; John 12:13), four times in the Doctrine and Covenants (Doctrine and Covenants 19:37; 36:3; 39:19; 109:79), and three times in the Book of Mormon. The English word HOSANNA is a representation of the Latin osanna, hosanna, derived from the Greek hosanna, osanna, representing the Aramaic hôšâʿ-nāʾ which itself is a shortened form of the original HEBREW hôšîʿâ-nāʾ.
