I disagree that his "BE REVEALED" occurs then (v.4). I believe Scripture indicates in many ways that he is revealed at the START of Jesus' opening of the SEALS [when He "STANDS to JUDGE"] at the START of the trib years (not mid-trib or when there is yet remaining 1260 days).
--2Th2:9a "whose coming/advent/arrival/presence/parousia" of the man of sin (equals Dan9:27a[26], BEGINNING [recall: "for ONE WEEK [7 yrs]"])
--2Th2:4 "who opposeth...exalteth...sitteth" (equals Dan9:27b, MIDDLE [we see these parallels time-wise, elsewhere])
--2Th2:8b "whom the Lord shall... destroy" (equals Dan9:27c, END)
ALL 3 parts in BOTH passages (and the SEALS equal "the beginning of birth PANGS [plural]" Jesus spoke of in His Olivet Discourse; and Rev1:1 says "things which must come to pass [i.e the 4:1/1:19c "future" aspects of the Book] IN QUICKNESS [NOUN]" [NOT "soon [adverb]," not "quickly [adverb]," not "immediately [adverb]"... which is the "7-yrs/70th-Wk" [chpt 4:1 thru chpt 19]).

The text [of 2Th2] refers to a number of things:
V.1 - the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our episynagoges [noun] unto Him (BOTH OF THESE is our Rapture event [noun])
V.2 - Paul is essentially saying, "don't let anyone convince you that the day of the Lord is present" (the time period involving judgments and very negative things--"Woe unto you who desire the day of the Lord! to what end is it for you? the day of the Lord is darkness, and not light... Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?" Amos 5:18,20)
V.3 - "that day [the time period from the immediately preceding verse, grammatically] will not be present if not shall have come the departure [noun] first, and [this "and" means it is entirely distinct from the previous thing, which was alone "first" (one thing "first" only) ['and' (distinctly)-->] the man of sin be revealed..."
This sequence is repeated 3x in this passage (vv.3-8), and is the same sequence as 1Th4-5 stated.
Here is the color-coded words to illustrate the 3x in 2Th2:3-8 -
1)
the departure first
and the man of sin
be revealed
2)
what withholdeth [/is restraining] in order that
he
might be revealed IN HIS TIME
3)
only he who is now [at present] restraining, will restrain, until out of the midst he be come [come to be]
and then [kai tote] shall that Wicked
be revealed
All of the green is referring to the [singular] noun-event of verse 1 (of the context).
Verse 2 is referring to the earthly time period that will thereafter unfold on the earth, [with] the "man of sin" and all he will do, and will involve "judgments" and "the wrath coming" (1 Thessalonians 1:10), when Jesus will "STAND to JUDGE" [Isa3:13, Rev4-5, Lam2:3-4 (which verse I see as parallel to 2Th2:7b-8a)]
