  1. Deut.27:15-26– “15 Cursed be the man that maketh a graven or molten image, an abomination unto Jehovah, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and setteth it up in secret. And all the people shall answer and say, Amen. 16 Cursed be he that setteth light by his father or his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen. 17 Cursed be he that removeth his neighbor's landmark. And all the people shall say, Amen. 18 Cursed be he that maketh the blind to wander out of the way. And all the people shall say, Amen. 19 Cursed be he that wresteth the justice due to the sojourner, fatherless, and widow. And all the people shall say, Amen. 20 Cursed be he that lieth with his father's wife, because he hath uncovered his father's skirt. And all the people shall say, Amen. 21 Cursed be he that lieth with any manner of beast. And all the people shall say, Amen. 22 Cursed be he that lieth with his sister, the daughter of his father, or the daughter of his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen. 23 Cursed be he that lieth with his mother-in-law. And all the people shall say, Amen. 24 Cursed be he that smiteth his neighbor in secret. And all the people shall say, Amen. 25 Cursed be he that taketh a bribe to slay an innocent person. And all the people shall say, Amen. 26 Cursed be he that confirmeth not the words of this law to do them. And all the people shall say, Amen.”

  2. 1 Cor.14:16– “Else if thou bless with the spirit, how shall he that filleth the place of the unlearned say the Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he knoweth not what thou sayest?”

  3. In Greek and Hebrew it is a transliteration In Hebrew it means “to make firm,” to “found, to prop up, to build”; hence, “support,” “confirm, so be it” In the Greek it would be more clearly translated as truly, verily, indeed, “so is it, so be it,” or “may it be fulfilled”

  4. Various Uses of “Amen”: As a metaphor: faithful Deut.7:9; Isa.49:7 As an adverb: verily, truly, or certainly Used in this way by Jesus 79 times in the Gospels Matt.5:18; Jn.3:3 When used by God: it is and shall be so When used by man: so let it be Saying Amen makes it our own – cf.1 Cor.14:16

  5. Num.5:22– “…and this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, and make thy body to swell, and thy thigh to fall away. And the woman shall say, Amen, Amen.” Deut.27 – As the Levites read the law the people were to say Amen Neh.8:6– “and Ezra blessed Jehovah, the great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with the lifting up of their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped Jehovah with their faces to the ground.”

  6. Psa.41:13– “Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, From everlasting and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.” Psa.72:19– “And blessed be his glorious name for ever; And let the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen, and Amen.” Psa.89:52– “Blessed be Jehovah for evermore. Amen, and Amen.”

  7. Matt.6:13– KJV “And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.” Everywhere else Jesus used it to mean: truly, verily cf.Mk.14:9,18,25,30 Paul used it with reference to the praise worthiness of God – “To him be the glory for ever. Amen.” Rom.1:25; 9:5; 11:36; 1 Tim.1:17

  8. Used to close several N.T. books 1 Cor.16:24– “My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.” These N.T. books end in the word Amen: Mark, Romans, 1 Corinthians, Galatians, Philemon, Hebrews, 2 Peter, Jude and Revelation

  9. Rev.3:14– “And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God:” 2 Cor.1:18-20– “18 But as God is faithful, our word toward you is not yea and nay. 19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timothy, was not yea and nay, but in him is yea. 20 For how many soever be the promises of God, in him is the yea: wherefore also through him is the Amen, unto the glory of God through us.”

  10. Rev.5:14– “And the four living creatures said, Amen. And the elders fell down and worshipped.” Rev.19:4– “And the four and twenty elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshipped God that sitteth on the throne, saying, Amen; Hallelujah.” Rev.22:20,21– “20 He who testifieth these things saith, Yea: I come quickly. Amen: come, Lord Jesus. 21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with the saints. Amen.”

  11. 1 Cor.14:15,16– “15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. 16 Else if thou bless with the spirit, how shall he that filleth the place of the unlearned say the Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he knoweth not what thou sayest?”

  12. It’s use must be: With understanding – 1 Cor.14:15,16 Come from the heart – Jn.4:24 Must be said in faith – Heb.11:6
