What is the primary meaning of 'revelation' in a religious context?

  1. God revealing himself

  2. Humans discovering God

  3. Prophets predicting future events

  4. Spiritual meditation

The correct answer is: God revealing himself

'Revelation' in a religious context refers to the idea of God revealing himself to humans through divine means. Option B is incorrect because it implies that humans have the ability to discover God on their own without divine intervention. Option C is also incorrect because while prophets may play a role in the revelation, the primary meaning of the word is not focused on future predictions. Option D is unrelated to the concept of revelation in the religious context.
