13 When the dragon saw that he had been hurled to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child. 14 The woman was given the two wings of a great eagle, so that she might fly to the place prepared for her in the desert, where she would be taken care of for a time, times and half a time, out of the serpent's reach. 15 Then from his mouth the serpent spewed water like a river, to overtake the woman and sweep her away with the torrent. 16 But the earth helped the woman by opening its mouth and swallowing the river that the dragon had spewed out of his mouth. 17 Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to make war against the rest of her offspring--those who obey God's commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus.

Mary does not fit the details of the verses in Rev 12. She is not on earth, the location of the pursuit. The woman is.

Only the LORD or an Apostle can correctly interpret Revelation for us. My view is there is only one mother of the Messiah, Miriam, who is also Israel, who is also the Church. That unity will never be broken. No one can separate her from Messiah, from Israel, or from the holy catholic apostolic church (not that they won't try).
