What doe "so that" mean in this particular following sentence?:

And it came to pass that Ilúvatar called together all the Ainur and declared to them a mighty theme, unfolding to them things greater and more wonderful than he had yet revealed; and the glory of its beginning and the splendour of its end amazed the Ainur, so that they bowed before Ilúvatar and were silent.

"So that" means "because of their amazement [at the glory and splendor]."

Good luck reading The Simarillion, that is difficult reading even to some native English speakers!

Thank u for taking ur time. Ur right about the fact that its difficult to read. I stop and look things up like every 3 minutes, lol. And if i dont find anything, then theres nothing left for me to do but to resort to askin ppl on this website. But i love the lore and The Lord of The Rings trilogy so im motivated enough to get thru it. No matte how hard its gonna be. I've read it before (well more than a half ) in my native language.But that was years ago, but i still remember that story about Beren And Luthien and that white big dog embarking on the quest to go to the Melkor's domain and get one of the gems off of his crown or something. I loved that one a lot.Thanks again :)
