There are so many ideas, but most have fatal flaws, and I can't help but see it as the woman in the church, and she was clothed with the glory of God (sun) the moon under her feet (law or satan Rom_16:20) and the twelve stars, the authority of the Apostles ministries, and the man child being the gospel of Jesus Christ. (short version) |
I'll make this as skinny as I can. The sun is the greater light
Genesis 1:16? Also in
Genesis 1:16 the moon is called the lesser light.
Genesis 37:9-11 again shows us the symbolic meaning of sun, moon, stars, all governmental symbols. The woman is Israel/Jerusalem, and she can only be Israel because Mystery Babylon is also Israel/Jerusalem. One is the remnant those who held to faithful Abraham, and were dedicated to the prophets. The stars which make up her crown are none other than the 12 tribal elders. She is clothed in the sun the greater light of leadership in the word. The lesser light is under her feet which enables her to even be clothed with the greatness of Illumination. The moon as the lesser light is was the Jesus concealed in the Tanakh. By having revelation of who Christ is was the only way Israel could bring forth Jesus Christ. Who is then taken up to sit in heavenly places
Ephesians 2:6. Sister Amana and Brother Esaias explained what the eagle wings symbolized in scripture.
