Cross Question on Revelation

Hi, y'all.

Well, it's a certain part in Revelation that confuses me a little - I will give the scripture passage that is making me a little confused. I do not need a full answer about it, just a general idea of who it is. Thanks!

Passage/Scripture:
Revelation 12:5-6 - The Woman and the Dragon / "She gave birth to a son who was to rule all the nations with an iron rod. And her child was snatched away from the dragon. 6And the woman fled into the wilderness, where God had prepared a place for her for 1,260 days."

My question is:
Who is the woman's child? Is He Jesus Christ? Or someone else? And, though this is not my most important question, who is the mother of this child? I.e., the woman?

Thanks!

Nearer

So...should I just wait and see? Is that what you mean? Sorry, I was thinking about something else as I am writing this so I am kind of confused.

Not Really. The mother is the Church... See verses below also the Child is Jesus and the Dragon is the devil all the verses are below.



Quote:
Rev 20:2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
Quote:



Jer 6:2 I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate woman.



2Co 11:2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present youas a chaste virgin to Christ.



Eph 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the savior of the body.

Eph 5:24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.

Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

Eph 5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

Eph 5:27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

Another clue to it not being Mary is the imagery of the vision. If your interprite the woman to be the litaral Mary then you will have to do the ame with very thing i that vistion and that wont work.

God Bless.
