Exegesis
The acclamation itself begins with the liturgical cry Hōsanna {Ὡσαννά | Hō-san-ná}, functioning as an appeal for salvation, and then adds the participial clause eulogemenos ho erchomenos {εὐλογημένος ὁ ἐρχόμενος | eu-lo-gē-mé-nos ho er-chó-me-nos}, “blessed is the one who comes,” echoing the festal language of Psalm 118.
In context — John 12:13
They took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet Him , and they were crying out, “Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord , even the King of Israel.”
