Rev. 12:1 - Mary, the “woman,” is crowned with twelve stars. She is Queen of heaven and earth and the Mother of the Church.
John, the author of Rev, took care of Mary, why did he not write her name directly into Rev 12:1?
I believe all the Early Church Fathers said the women crowned with 12 stars was Israel. The women in rev also suffered labor pains, which was part of the curse on Eve (oops).
LOL, and your claim to scholarship is?
