Once again, the persistent persecution of the woman (who did not have her child with her by the way ... the child was snatched up to heaven by God) ...

... corresponds best with Israel, ... who, though JESUS has ascended, ... still face an otherwise irrational persecution even to this day.

I think you will find that Mary, too, had her child taken way from her, first into death and then into Heaven.

I think you will find that Mary, too, had her child taken way from her, first into death and then into Heaven.

Still, ... the sequence of the Revelation 12 events (i.e. birth, child goes to heaven, ... then singular persecution) does not quite fit Mary's experience.
