Not newb questions at all; they indicate a pretty clear understanding of the game's terminology and restrictions.
1) There is a blessing in the Hourglass that lets you bury a card to reroll a die. Can you do this multiple times during the same check (in fact, can any Hourglass blessing effect be used multiple times)? I'm assuming it doesn't count as a boon for "one boon of each type per step"?
1a) The "you" in the Hourglass blessing effect refers to any player, not just the active player, right? (e.g. "You may reroll any die showing 1", and my friend is avenging my failed boon ---> he would get to reroll 1's)
2) Wall of Light:
Display. While displayed:
For your combat check, you may use your Arcane or Divine + 2d4, or 2d8 if it is against an Undead bane.
On another local character's combat check, add 1d4 and the Magic trait.
At the end of the turn, banish.Is this banished the same turn you (dis)play it even if you don't use it, or does it remain displayed until you use it (then gets banished that turn)?
1. Somewhat debatable, but you probably shouldn't re-use the same Hour power multiple times in a check or step, no. There was a whole thread that tiptoed around this issue, but my understanding is that it is not counted as playing a boon, but it is still a power and cannot be used multiple times per check or step (much like a character power).
1a. Correct. This is the same terminology for scenario powers and adventure powers - in these cases the "You" refers to any individual character that's relevant. So if a scenario power says "At the end of your turn, take 1d4 Fire damage", that applies at the end of every turn to the current player. If a scenario power says "When you would discard a blessing for its power, you may bury it to heal 1d4 cards" then that applies to any character discarding a blessing for its power, no matter who's turn it is.
2. It's banished at the end of the same turn you display it, no matter what. One of its powers when displayed is the non-optional "At the end of the turn, banish". Note, however, that you can choose to display it during a check, whether for the 'supporting' power or the combat check power, because the Core Rulebook says that "displaying a boon and [immediately] using a power on it counts as playing it only once".
The point of displaying it is that you can use for every combat of the turn not just one.
Bonus question, yes you can.

I think the rules are clear here.
Powers that allow or require you to reroll dice happen now; each such power can reroll dice no more than once per check.
