Context — The Triumphal Entrygenerated
Mark 11:9 describes the moment when Jesus entered Jerusalem, and the crowd responded with shouts of praise. This event fulfills the prophecy of the coming Messiah and highlights the people's recognition of Jesus' authority and mission. Their cries of 'Hosanna' reflect a deep longing for salvation and acknowledgment of Jesus as the one sent from God, as seen in the parallel accounts in Matthew 21:9 and Luke 19:38.

The Key Word — ὡσαννά, hōsannagenerated
The word ὡσαννά (hōsanna) is an exclamation of praise meaning 'oh save!' or 'save now!', derived from Hebrew roots. It is often used in the context of worship and is shouted by the crowd as Jesus enters Jerusalem, indicating their recognition of Him as the Messiah.
This term carries a dual significance: it is both a cry for help and an expression of admiration, reflecting the crowd's hope for deliverance through Jesus. The use of this word in the New Testament emphasizes the importance of Jesus' mission and the people's desire for salvation.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against. The BSB has shouting, and so do the KJV and ASV: all three convey the crowd's vocal expression of praise.
Where the translations differ is primarily in the rendering of προάγοντες and ἀκολουθοῦντες. The BSB uses those who went ahead, while the KJV and ASV use they that went before. Similarly, the BSB's those who followed is consistent with KJV and ASV, while the BBE opts for those who came after.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb governing the structure is ἔκραζον, were crying out, which connects two participial phrases describing the subjects: προάγοντες and ἀκολουθοῦντες, meaning going before and following respectively. This construction illustrates how the crowd is actively engaged in the moment.
The verse contains a series of clauses, with the main clause stating the action of crying out, and the participial phrases providing context by describing the subjects leading and following Jesus. This structure emphasizes the collective action of the crowd during this significant event.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
κράζω, which is used here as were crying out, has a parallel in the Septuagint, where it often translates Hebrew words for calling out or crying for help, such as זָעַק (za'aq) and צָעַק (tsa'aq). This connection highlights the continuity of the theme of calling upon God for salvation.
The use of ὡσαννά in the New Testament echoes the cries found in the Psalms, particularly in שַׁעֲרוּ (sha'aru), emphasizing the tradition of invoking God's help and blessing during significant moments of worship.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Mark 11:9 describes how the crowd welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem by shouting praises, calling out 'Hosanna!' and recognizing Him as the one sent by God. This moment is a fulfillment of prophecy and shows the people's hope for salvation.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
'Hosanna' is an expression of praise and a plea for salvation, meaning 'oh save!' It reflects the people's recognition of Jesus as the Messiah.
The crowd shouted praises to acknowledge Jesus as the Messiah and to express their hope for salvation, fulfilling Old Testament prophecies.

The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
Early Church Fathers comment on this moment of praise during Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. Their reflections highlight the significance of the crowd's exclamations and their connection to Old Testament prophecy.
The boys in the Gospel raised aloft their branches as the Savior entered Jerusalem. They kept on crying: “Hosanna.” … They borrowed these versicles from Psalms 117. Hosanna, moreover, is the Hebrew for “O Lord, grant salvation!”Early Church Fathers on Mark 11 →
“Hosanna,” however, is a word of supplicating, as some say who know the Hebrew language, more declaring a feeling than signifying something.Early Church Fathers on Mark 11 →

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
Et qui præibant, et qui sequebantur, clamabant, dicentes : Hosanna : benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini :
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.
ܘܗܢܘܢ ܕܩܕܡܘܗܝ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܕܒܬܪܗ ܩܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܘܫܥܢܐ ܒܪܝܟ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܐ ܒܫܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

προάγω (proago) means to lead forward or go before. It is used in various contexts, including leading someone to trial (Acts 12:6) and preceding others in time or place (e.g., Matthew 2:9). The word is composed of a prefix meaning 'before' and a root meaning 'to lead.' It appears in both transitive and intransitive forms, indicating its versatility in the New Testament.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

ἀκολουθέω (akoloutheo) means to follow or accompany, particularly in the context of discipleship. It is derived from the word for 'following' and is often used in the New Testament to describe the act of following Jesus (e.g., Matthew 4:25). The verb typically takes a dative object, indicating the person being followed. There is a note of distinction in usage, as it replaces the verb ἕπομαι in later Greek.
ἀκολουθέω, -ῶ
(< ἀκόλουθος, following; < ἀ- cop., κέλευθος, poët., away),
[in LXX chiefly for הָלַךְ;]
to accompany, follow: Mt 4:25, al. Metaph., of discipleship: Mt 9:9, Mk 9:38, Jo 12:26, al. Absol.: Mt 18:10; more freq., c. dat.

The Greek word κράζω (i.e., *krazo*) primarily means to cry out or scream, often associated with loud, inarticulate sounds like those of a raven. It appears in various contexts in the New Testament, including cries for help, expressions of vengeance, and public teaching. The word is built from a root meaning 'to croak' and covers a range of vocal expressions, from urgent pleas to proclamations.

λέγω (legō) is a primary Greek verb meaning 'to say' or 'to speak.' It encompasses a range of uses, including expressing thoughts, making declarations, and narrating events. The New Testament frequently employs it in direct speech and as a way to convey meaning, such as in Matthew 27:11. Abbott-Smith notes its distinction from similar verbs like λαλέω.
In dealing with synonyms of the N. T. we plainly need not concern ourselves with such earlier, or even contemporary, uses of the words which we are discriminating, as lie altogether outside of the N. T. sphere, when these uses do not illustrate, and have not affected, their Scriptural employment. It follows from this that all those contemptuous uses of λαλεῖν as to talk at random, as one ἀθυρόστομος, or with no door to his lips, might do; of λαλιά, as chatter («Kpacia λόγου ἄλογος, Plato, Defin. 416)—for I cannot believe that we are to find this at John iv. 42—may be dismissed and set aside. The antithesis in the line of Eupolis (Meineke, /ragm. Com. Gr. p. 174), Λαλεῖν ἄριστος, ἀδυνατώτατος λέγειν, does little or nothing to illustrate the matter in hand. The distinction which indeed exists between the words may in this way be made clear. There are two leading aspects under which speech…

The Greek word ὡσαννά (*hōsanna*) is an exclamation of adoration meaning 'oh save!' or 'save now!', derived from Hebrew roots. It appears in the New Testament in contexts of praise, specifically during Jesus' entry into Jerusalem (Matthew 21:9, 15; Mark 11:9-10; John 12:13). The lexicons consistently define it as a call for salvation.
† ὡσαννά (T, ὠσ-) (Heb נָא and הוֹשֵׁעַ; v. Dalman, Words, 220 IL; Gr., 249),
hosanna: Mt 21:9, Mk 11:9-10, Jo 12:13; τ. υἱῷ Δανείδ, Mt 21:9, 15.†

hosanna
Hebrew — Hebrewho-zan'-a (hosanna): This Greek transliteration of a Hebrew word occurs 6 times in the Gospels as the cry of the people when our Lord entered Jerusalem as the Messiah represented by Zec (9:9), and of "the children" when He cleansed the temple (Mt 21:9 bis,15; Mr 11:9 f; Joh 12:13). In Mt 21:9 it is "Hosanna to the son of David!" followed by "Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest!"; in 21:15 it is also "Hosanna to the Son of David!"; in Mr 11:9 f it is "Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Blessed is the kingdom that cometh, the kingdom of our father David…
Hosanna
Save now! or Save, we beseech, (Matt. 21:9). This was a customary form of acclamation at the feast of Tabernacles. (Comp. Ps. 118:25.)
(save now). "Save, we pray!" the cry of the multitudes as they thronged in our Lord’s triumphal procession into Jerusalem. (Matthew 21:9,15; Mark 11:9,10; John 12:13) The Psalm from which it was taken, the 118th, was one with which they were familiar from being accustomed to recite the 25th and 26th verses at the feast of tabernacles, forming a part of the great hallel. Ps. 113-118.
A word of joyful acclamation in Hebrew, signifying save now. The people cried Hosanna as Jesus entered in triumph into Jerusalem; that is, they thus invoked the blessings of heaven on him as the Messiah, Mt 21:9. This was also a customary acclamation at the joyful feast of tabernacles, in which the Jews repeated Ps 118:25,26.

The Greek word εὐλογέω (i.e., eulogeo) means to speak well of or to bless. It encompasses both praising and invoking blessings, often in a religious context. The New Testament uses it in various forms, such as in Luke 1:64 and Ephesians 1:3. Some sources note its passive form, indicating being blessed, as seen in Luke 1:28.
εὐλογέω. We can illustrate this verb only from the Christian papyri, as P Amh II. 145} (iv/v A.D.) τῷ ἀγ]απητῷ ἀδελφῷ καὶ ηὐλ[ο]γημένῳ, and the late P Grenf 11. 113? (viii/ix A.D.) τῶν εὐλογημένων τριῶν συνόδων, 11 μετὰ τῶν σὺν αὐτοῖς kal εὐλογημένων ὁμονόων. It occurs, however, in inserr. in such a formula as OG/S 73 εὐλογεῖ τὸν θεὸν Πτολεμαῖος Διονυσίου ᾿Ιουδαῖος, and was by no means confined to the Jews as Dittenberger shows from C/G 4705 4?

bles'-ed (barukh): Where God is referred to, this word has the sense of "praise," as in 1Sa 25:32, "Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel." But where man is in mind it is used in the sense of "happy" or "favored," and most frequently so in the Psalms and the Gospels, as for example, "Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked" (Ps 1:1); "Blessed art thou among women" (Lu 1:42); "Blessed are the poor in spirit" (Mt 5:3).

Counted over the 174 Old Testament verses where this Greek word stands: which Hebrew word keeps standing there too. A correspondence of verses rather than a word-by-word alignment, so read the percentage as strength of evidence, not as a claim about any single verse.
„Καὶ εὐλόγησεν ὁ θεὸς τὴν ἡμέραν τὴν ἑβδόμην καὶ ἡγίασεν αὐτήν“ (Gen.
ἐχορήγησε δὲ οὗτος ὁ Μελχισεδὲκ τῷ Ἁβράμου στρατῷ ξένια καὶ πολλὴν ἀφθονίαν τῶν ἐπιτηδείων παρέσχε καὶ παρὰ τὴν εὐωχίαν αὐτόν τε ἐπαινεῖν ἤρξατο καὶ τὸν θεὸν εὐλογεῖν ὑποχειρίους αὐτῷ ποιήσαντα τοὺς ἐχθρούς.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

The Greek word ἔρχομαι (i.e., *erchomai*) means 'to come' or 'to go.' It is used in various contexts, often indicating arrival or return, and can apply to both people and events. The New Testament frequently employs this term, notably in references to the coming of the Messiah (e.g., Mt 11:3). Lexicons note its use with various prepositions to indicate direction or purpose.

PREP PREPosition
A principal thing to notice about this preposition, which in the King James Version represents about 16 Hebrew and as many Greek words and prepositions, is that, in hundreds of cases (especially in the Old Testament, but frequently also in the New Testament) in the Revised Version (British and American) the rendering is changed to more exact forms ("to," "unto," "by," "upon," "at," "with," "among," "for," "throughout," etc.; compare e.g. Ge 6:16; 13:8; 17:7,9,12; 18:1; Ex 8:17; Le 1:9, etc.); while, nearly as often, "in" is substituted for divergent forms of the King James Version (e.g. Ge 2:14; 17:11; 31:54; 40:7; 49:17; Ex…

ὄνομα (onoma) means 'name' and can refer to the title or reputation of a person or thing. It appears in various contexts in the New Testament, such as indicating authority or character (e.g., Mt 10:41) and is often contrasted with the reality behind the name (e.g., Rev 3:1). The term can also signify a mere name or pretext, as seen in Mk 9:41.

nam (shem; onoma; Latin nomen (2 Esdras 4:1); verbs onomazo; Latin nomino (2 Esdras 5:26)): A "name" is that by which a person, place or thing is marked and known. In Scripture, names were generally descriptive of the person, of his position, of some circumstance affecting him, hope entertained concerning him, etc., so that "the name" often came to stand for the person. In Ac 1:15; Re 3:4, onoma stands for "persons"; compare Nu 26:53,55.

κύριος is a Greek word meaning 'lord' or 'master,' derived from the concept of authority. It is used in various contexts, referring to God, Jesus, and earthly masters. In the New Testament, it often denotes divine authority, as seen in verses like Matthew 12:8. The term can also express respect when addressing others, such as teachers or magistrates.
A MAN, according to the later Greek grammarians, was δεσπότης in respect of his slaves (Plato, Legg. vi. 756 e), therefore οἰκοδεσπότης, but κύριος in regard of his wife and children ; who in speaking either to him or of him, would give him this title of honour; “as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord” (κύριον αὐτὸν καλοῦσα, I Pet. ili. 6: ef. Plutarch, De Virt. Mul. 5. vv. Μίκκα καὶ Meyoro). There is a certain truth in this distinction. Undoubtedly there lies in κύριος the sense of an authority owning limitations—moral limitations it may be; it is implied too that the wielder of this authority will not exclude, in wielding it, a consideration of their good over whom it is exercised; while the δεσπότης exercises a more unrestricted power and absolute domination, confessing no such limitations or restraints. He who addresses another as δέσποτα, puts an emphasis of submission into his…

Lord
There are various Hebrew and Greek words so rendered.
(1.) Heb. Jehovah, has been rendered in the English Bible LORD, printed in small capitals. This is the proper name of the God of the Hebrews. The form “Jehovah” is retained only in Ex. 6:3; Ps. 83:18; Isa. 12:2; 26:4, both in the Authorized and the Revised Version.
(2.) Heb. ‘adon, means one possessed of absolute control. It denotes a master, as of slaves (Gen. 24:14, 27), or a ruler of his subjects (45:8), or a husband, as lord of his wife (18:12).
The old plural form of this Hebrew word is ’adonai. From a superstitious reverence for the name “Jehovah,” the Jews, in reading their Scriptures, whenever that name…
[GOD]
This name belongs to God by preeminence; and in this sense ought never to be given to any creature. Jesus Christ, as the Messiah, the Son of God, and equal with the Father, is often called Lord in Scripture, especially in the writing of Paul. The word LORD, in the English Bible, when printed in small capitals, stands always for JEHOVAH in the Hebrew. See JEHOVAH.
