Is the Gospel an Apocalypse? Apocalyptic E3

CHAPTER

Covering the Lamp in the Clay Jar

The greek word apocalupto is a compound word. Apocalypto means to uncover and collypseaa, which means to cover. Jesus uses the word calypto for covering the lamp, but when he describes the opposite of it using a synonym fane rao that means to become seeable. So jesus's true identity is an apocalypse to a close circle of around him. The disciples had an apocalypse as they slowly came to understand who jesus really was.
