+# Reveal (Revelation)
+
+The word "reveal" is used to talk about someone telling people something they did not know. They now know this because God wanted people to know something they did not know before. When God tells people about something they did not know before, this is a "revelation."
+
+“Revelation” is also the name of the final book in the New Testament. In this book, God told John about events that will happen in the last days.

+God also revealed himself by telling people who he is. Sometimes he did this by sending an angel to tell people things he wanted to tell them (see: Luke 1:28; Revelation 1:1). Sometimes God revealed himself through dreams or visions (see: Genesis 15:1; Acts 10:9-15). Sometimes he did this by giving messages to prophets and apostles (see: 2 Peter 3:2).
