1. appearing, manifestation — The act or event of becoming visible or manifest, used exclusively in the NT of Christ's appearing — both his first advent and his expected return in glory; covers all case forms (genitive, accusative, dative). Multilingual translations converge on a single meaning: spa aparición/manifestación, arb ظُهورِ (zuhur, 'appearing/manifestation'), kor 나타남 (natanam, 'appearing'), swa kuonekana ('being seen') / kuja ('coming') / mng'ao ('radiance'). The dative form S67970 (rendered swa mng'ao 'radiance') adds an instrumental nuance but describes the same christological event of divine self-disclosure, not a separate lexical sense. 6×
