ἀποκαλύπτω G601

Home gloss: uncover
Instead of (KJV / RSV): remove / reveal
Note: Take off a covering (8:13), as the root says (καλύπτω "cover"); of God's acts in the New Testament (Matt 11:25; Rom 1:17–18), where the noun is "apocalypse." "Reveal" is the expected English there; the home gloss keeps the concrete sense, and the New Testament verses carry a note naming "reveal" (144b)
