“Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus” (Holy, Holy, Holy)


Latin word Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus

English word Holy, Holy, Holy

Hebrew word Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh

We all can check Holy: kadosh, kodesh (Strong’s H6918, H6944) comes from verb H6942

We all see qadash and kadosh/kodesh all are same.

Root: קֹ֫דֶשׁ (qof, dalet, shin) [sounds like k’desh/k’dosh]

The root word kodesh literally means “to consecrate”, “apartness (set-apart)”, “sacredness”. Holy means consecrated, sacred, dedicated, set apart…

First we read Isaiah 6:3 USCCB (You can read context).

One cried out to the other:

“Holy, holy, holy* is the LORD of hosts!

All the earth is filled with his glory!”

New Testament (Brit Chadasha) USCCB Revelation 4:8

The four living creatures, each of them with six wings,* were covered with eyes inside and out. Day and night they do not stop exclaiming:

“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God almighty,

who was, and who is, and who is to come.”[d]

d. [4:8Is 6:23 / Rev 1:4811:1716:5.

Revelation 4:11 TLV

11 “Worthy are You, our Lord and God,
    to receive glory and honor and power,
For You created all things,
    and because of Your will
    they existed and were created!”

THE MYSTERY OF CREATION

God creates by wisdom and love

295 We believe that God created the world according to his wisdom.141 It is not the product of any necessity whatever, nor of blind fate or chance. We believe that it proceeds from God’s free will; he wanted to make his creatures share in his being, wisdom and goodness: “For you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created.”142 Therefore the Psalmist exclaims: “O LORD, how manifold are your works! In wisdom you have made them all”; and “The LORD is good to all, and his compassion is over all that he has made.”143

141 Cf. Wis 9:9.
142 Rev 4:11.
143 Ps 104:24; 145:9.
