I've read something a bit different. More ancient. It was a tribute to Amun-Ra (Egyptian god that created the universe.) He was worshipped as two separate gods, Amun (creator of the universe) and Ra (the sun god).
It was said that he only wanted to be worshipped as Amun and forced his name to be spoken aloud in praise. Over time, this word evolved into Amen, after prayer. Just like everything else, the word change/evolve over time but hence the origin of the word and when it is spoken.
I found it fascinating and my diddle above is a very succinct blurb. The text I read was presented much better than my attempt and provided more detail.
I was here to say this... christianity is just a regurgitation of egyptian and phonecian and sumerian religion... just look at the preface to the mason bible its 32 pages of egyptian gods...
How are you certain it's bogus info? cognitive dissonance? doesn't fit your narrative? ignorance? We have been lied to for thousands of years on just about EVERYTHING.
Well it means "let it be so".
