What Does “Amen” Mean in the Bible?
A Hebrew word that means “so it is,” “so be it.” With it we say that we believe and agree with what is prayed.
Today
It is said at the end of prayers. At Communion, we say “Amen” when we hear “The Body of Christ.”
Where it appears in the Bible
Revelation 3:14; 1 Corinthians 14:16
What the Bible says
Revelation 3:14
And to the angel of the church of Laodicea, write: These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, who is the beginning of the creation of God:
1 Corinthians 14:16
Else if thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that holdeth the place of the unlearned say, Amen, to thy blessing? because he knoweth not what thou sayest.
