אָמֵן• (amén)

1. Used to express agreement with what was just stated:amen
   • Tanach,Psalms89:53, with translation of theJewish Publication Society:

     בָּרוּךְ יְהוָה לְעוֹלָםאָמֵן וְאָמֵן׃

     barúkh YHVH l'olám amén v'amén

     Blessed be theLord for evermore.Amen, andAmen.

   • a.500C.E.,Babylonian Talmud.Shabbat,119b:

     אָמַר רֵישׁ לָקִישׁ: כָּל הָעוֹנֶהאָמֵן בְּכׇל כֹּחוֹ פּוֹתְחִין לוֹ שַׁעֲרֵי גַן עֵדֶן, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: ״פִּתְחוּ שְׁעָרִים וְיָבֹא גוֹי צַדִּיק שׁוֹמֵר אֱמוּנִים״, אַל תִּיקְרֵי ״שׁוֹמֵר אֱמוּנִים״ אֶלָּא: ״שֶׁאוֹמְרִיםאָמֵן״.

     amár resh lakísh: kol ha'onéamén b'khol kokhó potkhín lo sha'aré gan éden, shene'emár "pitkhú sh'arím v'yavó goy tsadík shomér emuním," al tikré "shomér emuním" éla "she'omrímamén."

     Resh Lakish said: anyone who answers "Amen" with all his strength, the gates of the Garden of Eden open for him, as it is said, "Open, gates, so the righteous nation may enter, guardian of faith." Don't read it as "guardian of faith" —shomér emuním — but as "those who sayamen" —she'omrímamén.
