This is expressed in one word,
"Revelation." A Revelation is
something revealed or made known,
not something hidden and concealed.
Moses tells that "the secret things
belong unto the Lord our God: but
those things which are revealed
belong unto us and to our children
forever." Deuteronomy 29: 29. The
very title of the book, then, is a
sufficient refutation of the opinion
sometimes expressed that this book
is among the mysteries of God, and
cannot be understood. Were this the
case, it should bear some such title as
"The Mystery" or "The Hidden Book,"
certainly not "The Revelation."
