I don't have a clue what does it mean, however in my language it means 'again'.

The word Opet means "City of the moon".And it was a place in South africa that its population was committing suicide(I'm not sure about that).The word is taken by the book Sunbird of Wilbur Smith.The first leader of the band was David Isberg.So,it's Isberg's idea the addition of 'h' inside the word.

No, Opet (without an 'h') is a part of the temple of Louxor, in Egypt.

Don't know, and don't care.
Because whatever Opeth means, they are gods!

After seeing Opeth live, I'm not sure I want them near my food. Not the best hygeine, especially the drummer.
 
Friggin' killer show though.
You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

I remember it comes from Opet, but I can't back up the actual meanings so far.
