Mary is not the new Eve

The Hebrew word used for "woman" in Genesis implies a married woman, not a mother. Adam's spouse was not his mother.

Christ's spouse is also not his mother. Spiritual Israel is the true spouse and the "woman" spoken of both here and in the book of Revelation.

I agree that Israel is usually spoken of here, especially in Revelations.
