Signify can mean to show something, or it can mean the meaning of something. For example: His actions signify one thing, while his words signify something different.

I am studying the Book of Revelation currently and here is what I have found. I returned to the Greek and see that "signified it" ....translated...is "semaino" from the word "sema" - to signify by a sign or mark... Elsewhere I found the verb, "esemanen", which means "sign" or "symbols". God gave the Revelation to Christ, Christ employed an angel to communicate it to the churches through the apostle, John, and John communicated it to the churches and to all believers in Christ. It did not come simply, this revelation. It came by glorious, powerful images, which allowed John, and now us, as readers, to become involved and enraptured by the interpretation. John received the divine words and human words as a Revelation, with God as the ultimate source of the Revelation. God made known to John the contents of the book, and He makes the contents known to us as well.

What else can I help you with?
