Re 1:
BDAG:
① making fully known, revelation, disclosure
When Jesus was eight days old, Simeon prophesied over him in Lk 2:
The verb form could be found in Mt 10:
Word Origin: From the Greek prefix ἀπό (apo, meaning "from" or "away") and καλύπτω (kaluptó, meaning "to cover" or "to conceal").
"Apocalypsis" in Greek meant an unveiling or disclosure of divine truths. The modern English connotation of "apocalypse" as catastrophic events is actually a later development based on the content of the Book of Revelation rather than the original Greek meaning of the word.
Strong's Greek: 602. ἀποκάλυψις (apokalupsis) — 18 Occurrences
