It doesn't mean "apocalypse" does it?
We have
啟示錄 启示录 [Qi3 shi4 lu4] /the Revelation of St John the divine/the Apocalypse/
but that is not to say that 启示 means "apocalypse" (destruction on a catastrophic scale)

Editor: I am opposed to "inspire" which is apparently copied from dict to dict; see discussion

Verb ~
这本书启示我们应该怎样度过自己的一生。
This book teaches us how to spend our lives.
