(see WH. Introductory § 408; but L T ὡσαννά; see Tdf. Proleg., p. 107) (derived from נָּא הושִׁיָעה, i. e. 'save, I pray', the Sept. σῶσον δή; (in form the word seems to be the Greek reproduction of an abbreviated pronunciation of the Hebrew (הושַׁע־נָא); others would make it אושַׁעְנָא (`save us'); cf. Hilgenfeld, Evang. § Hebraeos (the old 1884edition), p. 25 and p. 122; Kautzsch, Gram. d. Biblical-Aram., p. 1732), hosanna; be propitious: τῷ υἱῷ Δαυίδ added, be propitious to the Messiah, ὡσαννά τῷ Θεῷ Δαβίδ, ' Teaching' 10,6 [ET] (where see Harnack's note)).
