Amen is from the Hebrew word “aman” which means to be faithful, affirm or support. When we say “amen”, we are really saying that we agree and we affirm the truthfulness of what is said.

Yes, it is taken from the Egyptian Pharaoh, Amen Hotep. People would say his name as a blessing and it stuck.

It's a word giving final assent, as in 'so be it', or 'so let it be done'
