Blessed is he that readeth [i.e., puts forth effort], and they that hear [Gk: understand] the words of this prophecy [Gk: prediction], and keep [Gk: guard: hold fast, watch] [Gen 2:15] those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. 1. revelation = Gk: apokalupsis; “apocalypse”; disclosure:--appearing, coming, lighten, manifestation, be revealed, revelation /// separation, departure, cessation, completion, reversal AND to take off the cover, i.e. disclose:--reveal /// to cover up:--cover, hide /// to conceal (prop. by covering):--hide (self), keep secret, secret [-ly]. 2.
