Dict: easton - Revelation of Christ

Revelation of Christ @ the second advent of Christ. Three different Greek words are used by the apostles to express this,

(1) apokalupsis ( 1Corinthians:1;7; kjv@2Thessalonians:1:7; kjv@1Peter:1:7 kjv@1Peter:1:13);

(2) parousia kjv@Matthew:24:3 kjv@Matthew:24:27 kjv@1Thessalonians:2:19; kjv@James:5:7-8);

(3) epiphaneia ( kjv@1Timothy:6:14; kjv@2Timothy:1:10 kjv@2Timothy:4:1-8; kjv@Titus:2:13). There existed among Christians a wide expectation, founded on kjv@Matthew:24:29-30, 34, of the speedy return of Christ. (
