Revelation ר is what brings God and man together. It is the center of Israel ישראל connecting man ish יש and God el אל. Man does not discover God, but he MAY discover what God has revealed. The initiative is from God to man. [1]

There are several kinds of revelation mentioned in the alphabet.

Vav ן separates things to differentiate them for better understanding.
Dalet ד is a command which includes creation which was formed at his command.
Lamed ל is teaching with a shared heart.
Pe פ teaching through types, shadows, parables, mysteries, and prophetic riddle.
Shin ש the indwelling Spirit giving life to the bride.
Rosh ר a revelation where God makes himself known.

While there are many ways that God has taught, 'revelation' speaks particularly about making himself known. The Book of Revelation makes God known. What? Wait? We have been told that the Book of Revelation is the book of future events. But is is the revealing of Christ in the mystery from the beginning.

Consider closely the first verse:

Re 1:1 ¶ The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified [it] by his angel unto his servant John:

The revelation of Jesus Christ

It is the revealing or uncovering or unveiling of Jesus Christ of whom all the scriptures speak. [2] It is like the Rosetta Stone for all the symbols of the Old Testament.


which God gave unto him

When would God have given it to Jesus? As soon as Jesus rose from the grave he was restored to his previous glory. He no longer had his eyes closed to his divinity. There was nothing that anyone could have given him since he is the God who possesses all. The only time God could have given him the revelation was while he was still the Son of Man, while he did not take advantage of the divine attributes.

Back to the foundation: No man has seen God, nor can see him. When God chose to become incarnate.. to be made in the form of man, he had the same problem we do. Jesus could not see the Father while in the flesh. So before he took on flesh, he wrote himself notes in the mystery hidden from the beginning. from these notes, the boy and man Jesus learned who he was and what he was to do. This is the same mystery which we now read today. Anyone could have read it for themselves as Jesus did, but their hearts were hard, and so it was invisible to them.

The Revelation given to Jesus was the contents of the mystery hidden from the beginning. In resurrection he could receive no revelation since he then knew beginning to end. But in the flesh, as he studied scripture with a pure heart like a little child, the Spirit guided him to understand the mystery.

to shew unto his servants

Jesus taught HIS servants; the disciples/apostles. They forgot what he taught them, so he gave them the Holy Spirit to remind them what he had taught them before the cross.

things which must shortly come to pass;

If Jesus received the revelation and taught the revelation before the cross, then the thing which must shortly come to pass IS the cross.
