Mary does NOT represent Israel. That’s a fig newton of somebody’s imagination. The bride of Christ is His church - which is comprised of saved Jews and the gentiles He has grafted into the new Israel.

Huh? You make absolutely no sense. First, you say Mary does NOT represent Israel. Then, you say the bride of Christ is His church comprised of saved Jews, etc. Tell me, you would classify Mary as a 'saved Jew,' wouldn't you?

If so, then obviously she is part of the Church -which you correctly note is the bride of Christ- and, thus, obviously part of the new Israel. Hence, it's perfectly legitimate to view her words and actions as representative of Israel.

Sheesh, follow your own logic at least!
