Origin

Middle English: from Old French rescoure from Latin re- (expressing intensive force) + excutere 'shake out, discard'.

Rescue is from Old French rescoure based on Latin excutere ‘shake out, discard’. The prefix re- intensifies the sense. The notion here is of ‘shaking out’ a captive from the hands of an enemy.
