Original Message Who is the Woman Clothed in the Sun of Revelation 12?

:pic35:

This is actually an interesting apologetics question, since there is a clear difference of opinion between Catholics and most protestants (a few prominent protestant exegetes do adhere to the Catholic position). The Woman in Revelation 12 is important because of the position she is given in the book and in heaven by St. John (she is depicted as the Queen of Heaven). Here is the text:


Revelation 12:1-6. And a great portent appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of 12 stars; she was with child and she cried out in her pangs of birth, in anguish for delivery. And another portent appeared in heaven: behold, a great red dragon, with seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems upon his heads. His tail swept down a third of the stars of heaven and cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to bear a child, that he might devour her child when she brought it forth; she brought forth a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne, and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which to be nourished for one thousand two hundred and sixty days.

I have always been intrigued by this particular part of revelations.

Some people think that the woman mentioned is actually the church....and yet some other people (myself included)believe revelations is talking about an actual woman...who is alive now.

What do you think?
