Dear Sqk, In Jewish tradition saying "Amen" was a way of affirming the truth of a statement made by another. "Let it be so!" Christ needs not the affirmation of human beings, for He spoke out of divine authority. Consequently, He said "verily, verily" or "Amen, Amen" (using the typical Hebraic method of emphasis by repetition) prior to many of His statements. It was a way of emphasizing the importance and divine authority of what He was about to say. When I see that in the gospels, I always think: Now here comes something important! As to whether or not it always marks a point of doctrine, I suppose that that might be true. Of course, anything that could be considered didactic (i.e., teaching) would be a doctrinal in nature. Check it out with a good concordance. You could make this point for yourself! Let us know what you find out. In Him, Doc |
