For what it is worth.... here is a cut / paste of a narrative that might represent God's  introduction to chapter 12 found within my commentary on Revelation. 

 

 

To my Beloved Church,

The Woman, the Dragon, and the Cosmic Conflict

Chapter 12 of Revelation unveils a majestic and cosmic drama, rich in symbolism and profound in its message of My sovereignty, love, and redemptive plan. Here, I reveal the ongoing spiritual battle between good and evil, the victory of My Son, and the protection and preservation of My people. This chapter speaks directly to My unwavering commitment to bring salvation and to defeat the forces that seek to destroy.

The woman represents My faithful people, Israel, from whom the Messiah would come. She is adorned with the sun, moon, and stars, symbolizing My covenant promises fulfilled through her. Her labor and pain in childbirth reflect the anticipation and struggle that accompanied the arrival of the Savior into the world. The dragon, with its seven heads and ten horns, symbolizes Satan’s power, rebellion, and authority over earthly kingdoms. He seeks to devour the child born of the woman, representing his relentless efforts to thwart My plan of salvation. Yet, My power ensures the child’s victory. The male child represents My Son, Jesus Christ, who is destined to rule all nations with a rod of iron. His ascension to My throne signifies His triumph over sin, death, and Satan, affirming that My plans cannot be thwarted.

The great battle between Michael and his angels against the dragon and his forces reveals the cosmic dimension of the struggle against evil. Satan’s defeat and expulsion from heaven underscore My sovereignty and the certainty of his ultimate defeat. Unable to prevail in heaven, the dragon turns his fury toward the woman and her offspring. Yet, I protect the woman, who is given wings to flee to a place of safety in the wilderness. This reflects My continual provision and preservation of My faithful people, even amidst persecution.

Revelation 12:16-17 reveals the relentless efforts of the serpent (Satan) to destroy the woman (Israel) and her offspring, but also highlights My

sovereign protection and ultimate plan for redemption. The earth comes to the aid of the woman by swallowing the river the serpent poured out, symbolizing Satan’s attempts to overwhelm her through deception, persecution, and spiritual corruption. If the earth represents the Gentile nations, this intervention reflects My use of the Gentile world to safeguard Israel, even after her rejection of the Messiah and her period of dispersion. The scattering of the Jews among the nations over the next 2,000 years ensured their survival and preserved their identity, shielding them from annihilation and the full influence of the corrupted Christian doctrines that emerged within the Gentile-dominated church.

During this time, Israel remained faithful to the one true God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, rooted in the Word of God found in the Old Testament. This preservation laid the foundation for their future spiritual awakening: when the time of the Gentiles is complete, their blindness will be removed, and they will receive the testimony of Jesus, just as Paul did. At that point, Israel will be ready to fulfill her role in proclaiming the true Gospel to the world. The offspring of the woman represent all who keep My commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus. They are targeted by the dragon, yet they remain under My care and protection. Their endurance serves as a testimony to My faithfulness and their trust in My promises.

This chapter invites you to see the larger picture of the spiritual battle in which you are engaged. The cosmic struggle between good and evil is not one of equals; I am sovereign, and the outcome is assured. Satan’s fury is evidence of his defeat, and My provision for the woman and her offspring demonstrates My power to protect and preserve My people. You are called to stand firm, holding fast to My commandments and the testimony of My Son. Remember that you are part of a greater story—one in which victory is already won through the Lamb. Take courage in knowing that no matter how fierce the opposition My plans will prevail, and I am with you always.

No, I am sorry. I have recently received the first proof copy to review. 
 

If you would like me to cu / paste some of the discussions or narratives within the commentary where you might want to get a different interpretation, I would be glad to respond and perhaps we might discuss each other’s views. 
 

I can assure you that my interpretations in Daniel and Revelation will significantly depart from any of “today’s accepted interpretations.” 
 

As you know, there maybe at least one major interpretation (futurist, preterist, historicist, etc.) for perhaps each of the major prophetic verses in either of the two books and thus there is no consensus among the scholars, academics or theologians. But there is no shortage of opinions. 
 

Let me know if you would like to discuss anything.. both might learn something from each other. Best wishes.

Since the King planet, Jupiter was brought up. 

 

King in Hellenic is vasileus(ΒΑΣΙΛΕΥΣ). In modem Hellenic it is vasilias(ΒΑΣΙΛΙΑΣ).

 

ΒΑΣΙΛΕΥΣ = 2+1+200+10+30+5+400+200 = 848

 

Jupiter - Earth distance on September 15 33 AD = 848,000,000,000 meters

 

In the previous astronomy photo I posted, the planet Jupiter can be seen in the constellation of Cancer.

Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system. The second largest is Saturn. We therefore notice this coincidence. In Hellenic Christ is written ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ(Christos). 

 

ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ = 600 + 100 + 10 + 200 + 300 + 70 + 200 = 1480

 

Saturn - Earth distance on September 16, 33 AD = 1,480,000,000,000 meters

 

 September 16, 33 AD was the day that Venus aligned with Uranus, lighting up the garland of 12 stars on the head of the woman(Virgo).

I am sorry but that would not be wise as I intend to review the proof copy, finalize it and then offer it for purchase on Amazon. Hope you understand. However, this should be completed in a relatively short time and if you would like, I will let you know when it is available and I will send you an authors copy (no cost to you) if you are willing to give me a mailing address or PO Box address, etc. Thank you.

IMO: The "woman" who bore the child (Jesus), in the context of Revelation 12:13-17, is the Christian Jewish people. They will flee persecution to the "place" of Petra (Revelation 12:6,14). When evil forces realize they cannot engage these Jews that fled, they will turn on others (gentiles) who also bear the testimony of Jesus. After this the beast ("anti Christ"), a leader who had received a fatal wound and yet survived (Revelation 13:1-4), will step up the persecution, knowing from the Bible that his time in power is coming to an end (Revelation 17:12, "one hour"="short time"). He is insane, since he knows he cannot prevail, but hatred clouds his mind.

The woman is Mary!

Rev 12 is gen 3 writ large, the woman of gen 3:15 she has enmity with the dragon!

The man child is Christ! Who rules the nations!

Her offspring or children are Christians not Jews!

 

rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Not Israel! Jews do not have the testimony of Jesus!

I believe this speaks to an inward truth in relationship to our soul, and the son we are (birthed through the perception of our soul), just as the whore and the virgin city (which can be seen in the two Enochs) Cain building a city (made with hands) and naming it after his son or Enoch who became it ...

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
