        <p> '''''a''''' -'''''pēr''''' ´: Of eight [[Hebrew]] originals the chief is ראה , <i> '''''rā'āh''''' </i> , "to be seen." Used mainly of God's self-revelations in person and in dreams and visions: "Yahweh appeared unto Abram" ( [[Genesis]] 12:7 ); to [[Moses]] ( Exodus 3:2 ); to [[Solomon]] ( 1 Kings 3:5 ). All originals used of Nature's processes, of the appearing, i.e. coming of the morning ( Exodus 14:27 ); stars ( Nehemiah 4:21 ); flowers, flocks of goats, tender grapes ( Song of Solomon 2:12; Song of Solomon 4:1 m; Song of Solomon 7:12 margin). So New [[Testament]] ὤφθην , <i> '''''ō̇phthēn''''' </i> , passive of <i> '''''hōrā́ō''''' </i> , "I see," "to be seen" used especially of angelic revelations and visions: as on the Mount of [[Transfiguration]] ( Matthew 17:3 ); an angel ( Luke 1:11 ); the risen Lord ( Luke 24:34 ); cloven tongues at [[Pentecost]] ( Acts 2:3 ); vision to Paul ( Acts 16:9 ); a great wonder in heaven ( Revelation 12:1 , the King James Version). </p> <p> ὀπτάνω , <i> '''''optánō''''' </i> , in Acts 1:3 , of [[Christ]] appearing after his suffering; φαίνομαι , <i> '''''phaı́nomai''''' </i> , "to shine," like the above with the added thought of a resplendent, luminous revelation, as of the [[Bethlehem]] star ( Matthew 2:7 ); the bringing to light of sin ( Romans 7:13 , the King James Version). Also φανερόω , <i> '''''phaneróō''''' </i> , "to make manifest," used exclusively of the post-resurrection appearances and second coming of Christ and of the disclosures of the great judgment day. See Colossians 3:4; 2 Corinthians 5:10; Revelation 3:18 and seven other passages the King James Version. </p>
