Best Answer

The Apocalypse is from the Greek (lifting of the veil) and usually applies to the Book of Revelation. It predicts the future, more specifically the final battle between angels and demons. This includes the battle between Christ and the "Beast" (Antichrist) at Armageddon. Both the Apocalypse and Armageddon are used metaphorically to mean the end of the Earth, or to reference Judgment Day.

Look up Apocalypse in

Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

Apocalypse (Greek: Ἀποκάλυψις -translit. APOKALYPSIS, literally: the lifting of the veil), is a term applied to the disclosure to certain privileged persons of something hidden from the mass of humankind. Today the term is often used to mean "end of the world", which may be a shortening of the phrase apokalupsis eschaton which literally means "revelation at the end of the world".
