Cry Hosanna!!

I guess it's common knowledge that Hosanna means "Save, we pray thee!" (Young's Analytical Concordance to the Bible.) I was looking at Psalm 8 this morning and I wasn't thinking about "Hosanna" when I started. I've read this verse often enough but I've never really explored it. There are ways it stumps me.

Psalm 8: 2 "From the lips of children and infants
you have ordained praise
because of your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger." (NIV)

As it turns out, "ordained" (according to Young’s Concordance) is the same word used in 1 Chronicles 9:22 (NIV) . "Altogether, those chosen to be gatekeepers at the thresholds numbered 212. They were registered by genealogy in their villages. The gatekeepers had been assigned to their positions of trust by David and Samuel the seer." "Assigned" meaning, "to lay a foundation, to appoint or settle." The contrast between this situation in Chronicles and the next passage from Matthew where the same word is referred to surprised me.

Matthew 21:15-17 "But when the chief priests and the teachers of the law saw the wonderful things he did and the children shouting in the temple area, "Hosanna to the Son of David," they were indignant.
"Do you hear what these children are saying?" they asked him.
"Yes," replied Jesus, "have you never read, "'From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise'?"
And he left them and went out of the city to Bethany, where he spent the night." (NIV)

I've always seen this as a very spontaneous expression from the children. It may have been, yet the word from the passage in 1 Chronicles that it's associated with doesn't strike me as particularly spontaneous.

What's even more interesting, again according to Young’s Concordance, was that this same word for "shouting," "crying," or "crying out," is also used in about 10 places in the gospels, situations that were rather disruptive and don't neccessarily look like church gatherings:
-when the two blind men followed Jesus crying ,
-when Peter began to sink walking on the water,
-when a woman was following the disciples and crying after them and the disciples complained and asked Jesus to send her away,
-when a demon came out of a man,
-when the evil spirits cried out, "You are the Son of God",
-when Jesus confronted Legion and they cried out,
-when John bore witness to Jesus,
-Jesus at the Feast,
-both children and adults shouting Hosanna,
-Jesus on the cross,

[not sure why these are all underlined. it won't go away...] There are forty places in the New Testament where that same word is used, referring to this kind of crying out. The scriptures talk about children obeying, Paul talks about a need for order during worship and I'm not undermining any of that, but if you imagine yourself there in each of these situations from the Gospels and watch Jesus carefully and how He responds and reacts particularly when His friends tell Him, "Lord, these people are bothering us!". . .

It's just so interesting...
