Revelation 12

There are 22 chapters in the book of Revelation. Chapter 12 is one of the more confusing chapters. A friend of mine has a blog about the Tribulation. She is an avid reader of Revelation and enjoys studying it. Here is a post about Revelation 12:


"Revelations 12 talks about the woman and the dragon and it can be a very confusing chapter. But for right now, I want to single in a little more on just one verse.

In Revelations 12:6 it says,

Then the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that they should feed her there one thousand two hundred and sixty days.

 a lot of symbolism in this chapter. The woman represents Israel. Its saying in this chapter that there will be a safe haven for Israel in the last half of the Tribulation (1260 days equals three and a half years). Many scholars believe there will be separate safe havens for non-believing Israelis and believing Israelis and other believing Jews."
