The word “amen” is spoken at the end of every Christian prayer, used across Judaism and Islam, and woven through scripture in ways most people never pause to examine. Where does it actually come from? What does it really mean? And why is the exact same word found at the root of one of the most powerful gods of ancient Egypt?

In Inner Whirled 14, Chance and co-host Dylan Saccoccio follow the etymology of “amen” through scripture, ancient Egypt, and the broader symbolic tradition that runs underneath the world’s religions.

In this session: the meaning of “amen” in the Bible, the connection to Amun and the hidden one of Egyptian theology, the etymology of “Jehovah” and “Adonai,” the Adonis mythology and its echoes in the Old Testament, and the deeper symbolism the ancients encoded in their sacred names.
