Hi Ahwa: You have a style of bible interpretation that looks to me like you are reading yourself into the bible. You arbitrarily decide that something in scripture can be changed or given a different meaning, by using that method a person can truly find anything they want in the bible or for that matter in any written message since the person is actually creating the contents to conform to their will.

Which Israel is that seeing all Israel are not born of the incorruptible Spirit of Christ as the new creatures? Just as in the same way which kind of Jew one outwardly of the corruprf flesh or inwardly of the Spirit?
1Peter 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
These are sybolic, not literal. Jesus was inside Mary- so she was clothed with the sun (symbolizing spiritual light and majesty)- not for her, but for Christ within her.
The dragon sybolizes satan. And with his 'tail' he took 1/3 of the angels in heaven (who are now called demons) to the earth with him, when he fell from heaven.
Sure we're in the great tribulation. We suffer trials, hardships, and persecutions of varying degrees. We are in the "last days." The last days are from Christ's ascension into heaven, until His return. I bet those who experienced the holocaust, who seen piles of dead bodies as tall as buildings, thought that it was the end of the world literally, but the end is still to come.

Revelation 12:13-17 "And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman who brought forth the male child. 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. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water like a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood. 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. And the dragon was angry with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ." ***
