Apocalypse : Borrowed from the Latin apocalypsis (revelation), itself borrowed from the ancient Greek apokàlupsis (action of discovering).

Literally, therefore, “thing un-hidden” and, by extension, “thing revealed to men”.

 

“Blessed is he who reads, blessed are those who hear the words of prophecy and keep what is written in it, for the time is near. » Apocalypse, I.
