Luke 13:35An Understandable Version (2005 edition)Look, your house [i.e., the Jewish Temple] is being abandoned [by me (?)]. You will not see me until [the time when] you will be saying, ‘Praise the One who is coming in the name of the Lord.’” See the chapter |
And the crowds that walked ahead and followed behind Him shouted, “Hosanna to the son of David. [Note: The Syriac word ‘Hosanna’ originally meant ‘save now’ but came to be used as an expression of welcome, praise, blessing or acclamation]. May He, who comes in the name [i.e., by the authority] of the Lord, be blessed. Hosanna in the highest [i.e., may this blessing reach to the highest heaven].”
