If the woman is Israel and the moon is Israel, how is Israel standing on Israel... this makes no sense. But what does make since is that the woman, the church has the dominion over Israel i.e., the kingdom was taken from Israel and given to the gentiles.
He said the woman is Israel,and the moon is wife,wives,of Jacob,with Jacob being the sun,and the 12 stars being the 12 tribes of Israel,which is the truth,the woman is Israel,and not the Church,for the Church was never taken from the Jews,for salvation is of the Jews,and when a Gentile is saved they are a Jew inward,and belong to the commonwealth of Israel.
The Church was not taken from Israel,but they lost possession of their land temporarily,but the kingdom will be restored to them in the millennial reign of Christ,after God turns Israel as a nation to the truth that Jesus is their Messiah.
Rev 12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
Rev 12:2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
Rev 12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
Rev 12:4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
Rev 12:5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.
The woman is pregnant with child,who is the child Christ Jesus,who came through Israel,who was caught up to the throne of God,and will come back and rule the world with a rod of iron.
Rev 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
Rev 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.
Rev 12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
Rev 12:15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.
Rev 12:16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
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.
The 7 years period that God will allow the world to have their way,and cause all people that do not love Him to follow the beast kingdom,and bring Israel as a nation to the truth that Jesus is their Messiah.
The nation of Israel is protected for the 7 years period from physical attack,but after the last three and one half years of persecution towards the saints,then those that remain will be gathered unto Christ,and then the world will attack Israel,and Jesus will come back with the saints and save Israel,and defeat the world.
The kingdom of earth shall be restored to Israel,and no Gentile government shall rule,and Jesus and the saints will rule over one sixth of the world that fought against Israel.
