Thayer's Greek-English Lexicon ἐπιφανές (ἐπιφαίνω), conspicuous, manifest, illustrious: Acts 2:20 (Tdf. omits) from Joel…
ἐπιφανές (ἐπιφαίνω), conspicuous, manifest, illustrious: Acts 2:20 (Tdf. omits) from Joel 2:31 (); the Sept. here and in Judg 13:6 (Alex.); Hab 1:7; Mal 1:14 thus render the word נורָא terrible, deriving it incorrectly from רָאָה and so confounding it with נִרְאֶה.
