Originally posted by JS357 It is prophesying the feelings and emotions that will be felt, as yet another great RHP forum battle begins, this one titled "Rev 12: 1-17."
This is fairly easy to understand. The women represents Israel and on a more basic level Mary but Israel whom the Messiah would be born through. Then the Serpent is persecuting the believers in God as it says and silly as it sounds I believe it's anger and jealousy that God has chosen mortal man not much more than glorified dirt balls with eyeballs 🙂 Also there was (I believe it was past tense already happened) a war in heaven and the devil now has a limited time as stated. Michael (bible does not say a whole lot about can be debated about who he is but it appears he was one of the angels) The 12 stars represent the 12 tribes of Israel. one thousand two hundred and sixty days is the one part I'm as clear on.

If you have an explination post it.

You have dismissed long paragraphs that I have labored on carefully as garbage nonsense in the most contemptuous way.
I mean if someone has some REASONS why they think and exegesis is off, I am willing to look at their reasons.
Whole sale rejection with no reasons make me feel like time is being wasted on someone.

You can count on me honoring Christ to the maximum you know?
You can expect that I will be exalting Jesus Christ as highly as I can.
I don't think you're going to like that. But the invitation is noted.
🙂 Dude my grammar and mechanics are horrible but I know you have spell check right? Some people here are more picky as petty as it my seem but will respect you more as they might see this as a sign of lack of education or intelligence. I actually don't think that way but my education was technically not past HS

Thanks Manny. So just a couple questions. The later part of verse 4 says the dragon or the Devil was standing before this woman so he could kill this child? So when did this happen in the events of Mary having Jesus back when he was born? There seems to be no menation of that in the accounts of the gosples that I can find. So let me know on that.
And I don't understand the point your saying about God being jealous?
And to mess this up a little if this woman was Mary and it shows her up heaven with this crown of 12 stars and the moon was beneath her feet and she was arrayed with the sun, what does this mean? Is she up in heaven as some godess that has the moon and sun as her settings around here?
