The Word “Amen”

[The servant]

The Word “Amen”

“Amen” is a Hebrew word; it means “verily”, “certainly”. It was taken over into the Christian liturgy as the closing word, as assent and reaffirmation for the prayer and for the Blessing in the sense of: “So be it!” or “Yea, let it be done accordingly!”

But the word has yet another, a higher meaning, when we read in the 3rd chapter of John’s Revelation verse 14: “And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write: These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;”

Here, the Will of God, the Fountain-Head of all Being, the “A and the O”, the “Beginning and the End”, is referred to as “Amen”. His Name is “Imanuel” which contains the letters of the word “Amen”.

Depends I guess on what you find important in life

There is another possible origin for the Hebrew word "Amen". One that was learned during the captivity in Egypt. Amen, the hidden, supreme God of Egypt. Not to be confused with Amen-Ra.
Amen and Amen-Ra, Egyptian Gods
