A visiting minister was very long-winded. Worse, every time he would
make a good point during his sermon and a member of the congregation
responded with "Amen" or "That's right, preacher" he would get wound
up even more and launch into another lengthy discourse. Finally, the
host pastor started responding to every few sentences with "Amen,
Pharaoh!" The guest minister wasn't sure what that meant, but after
several more "Amen, Pharaohs" he finally concluded his very lengthy
sermon. After the service concluded and the congregation had left,
the visiting minister turned to his host and asked, "What exactly did
you mean when you said "Amen, Pharaoh?" His host replied, "I was
telling you to let my people go!"
