This word, which is the same in the Greek, is considered to be a compound of two Hebrew words, and signifies 'save now,' as in Psalm 118:25 . In the N.T. the sense appears to be 'bestow blessing.' "Bestow blessing on the Son of David: bestow blessing [O thou who art] in the highest." Matthew 21:9; Mark 11:9,10; John 12:13 .
