Cut out your drawing when finished. Next, cut out pocket and fold tabs back when dry insert drawing into pocket. Who is the woman? Many scholars believe that to find out who the woman is we must go back to Genesis 37:9-10 when Joseph had his dream. In Revelation 12:1, the woman is described as a: great sign in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head twelve stars. If we know what the sun, moon, and 12 stars mean here, we can know for sure who the woman is. In Genesis 37:9-10 it says "And he (Joseph) dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me. And he told it to his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?" Scholars believe that Genesis 37:10 clearly explains the symbols as Joseph's family: the sun was his father Jacob, the moon was his mother Rachel, and
the 11 stars were his brothers (the sons of Jacob, tribes of Israel). So we know the woman in Revelation is Israel --- a Jewish Israel. She wears the very early symbols given to Jacob and the tribes. 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. Revelation 12:17 Another proof text that the woman is Israel, because it was to Israel the commandments of God were given; but note the war isn't with all her children, only those who also believe in Jesus. The dragon is after believing Israel -- the remnant -- which is comprised of Jewish believers and grafted in Gentiles. Compare to: Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. Revelation 14:12 The woman in Revelation is Israel; her remnant is believing Israel.
