“Amen”
1063
In the book of the prophet Isaiah, we find the expression “God of
truth” (literally “God of the Amen”), that is, the God who is
faithful to his promises: “He who blesses himself in the land shall bless
himself by the God of truth [amen].”645 Our Lord often used the
word “Amen,” sometimes repeated,646 to emphasize the trustworthiness
of his teaching, his authority founded on God’s truth.
