I have done research on the word know to many, amen. <http://www.todayifoundout.com> says that it originated from the Egyptian god Amun, being misspelled as "amen."

I have a hypothesis that this is not correct and there is a deeper origin and understanding of where and when it started.
I have done research of when it originated so I could back track it to how and where it originated.

A friend of mine stated, "I believe it came from a Hebrew word or phrase with a similar meaning."

I wasn't sure about this since he didn't have any evidence of his theory so I did some more research. I found that he was partially correct. There is also a theory that comes and is based off of the Hebrew Language. There is no specific word or phrase that states a relationship but there is still the theory.

In the dictionary the definition of "amen" is:

> 
> **amen**
> 
> 
> [ey-men, ah-men]
> 
> 
> 1.
> it is so; so be it (used after a prayer, creed, or other formal statement to express solemn ratification or agreement).
> 
> 
> *adverb*
> 
> 
> 2.
> verily; truly.
> 
> 
> *noun*
> 
> 
> 3.
> an utterance of the interjection “amen.”.
> 
> 
> 4.
> a musical setting for such an utterance.
> 
> 
> 5.
> an expression of concurrence or assent.
> 
> 
> 

If you could give me advise and an accurate answer that would be very helpful for my situation.
