Alleluia

Sharon Mau

Alleluia

At the most literal, Alleluia means “All hail to Him Who is.”

This is a colour photograph taken inside the St. John’s Episcopal Church near Kula on Maui

Hallelujah (הללויה) is a Hebrew word meaning “praise Yahweh”. It is an exclamation used chiefly in songs of praise or thanksgiving to God, and as an expression of gratitude or adoration.
