Section 18 About the sun of 12th chapter of the book of Revelation

In the Holy Writings there are some places speaking about the sun. Here some of them:

Gen.37:9. Here the sun is Jacob (Joseph's dream see).

Judg.5:31 – those which love of God - they as the sun.

The Lord God is a Sun, Ps.84:11, also Mal.4:2.

David's throne is as the sun, Ps.89:36.

The author has an objection against application of a place from the book of Judges, 5:31 as here near to a word "sun" there is a word "as" while in Revelation 12:1 "sun" in full sense of this word is mentioned. Accordingly sense it turns out that men, loving the Lord – are as the sun, differently - are similar to the sun, but are not the sun. As we see, these two expressions do not coincide and are not identical each other, and therefore and place of Judg.5:31 cannot be applied to explanation Rev.12: 1. The same objection concerns and places Ps.89:36, Sol. 6:10 and Mat.13:43. Remains still Gen.37:9, specifying in Jacob. But here it is necessary to tell, that to places of Ps.84:11 and Мал.4:2 belongs bigger advantage as they speak about the Lord, and Gen.37:9 - only about Jacob. As really applicable places remain Ps.84:11 and Mal.4:2 where it is told, that the Lord is a sun. With this answer considers finished a question on the sun. All 4th chapter of the prophet Malachi also concerns John's Revelation and, in particular, throws light on 12th chapter of Revelation. The main conclusion from told is that the woman has been clothed with the Sun, that is into Christ (see on this theme also Gal.3:27, Rom.13:14 and Ps.132:9). So, here it is told about Zion which is clothed into Christ, the Zion which has BECOME THE CHRISTIAN! Words of prophet Isaiah, 40: 9-11 concerns this time also: «O Zion, that brings good tidings … O Jerusalem, that brings good tidings» - having accepted the Christ, Zion will be to peach good tidings. So, sense and meaning of the sign described in Rev.12:1 it is that: Israel (Zion), clothed into Christ, accepted the Christ, become the Christian. Under her feet is church (i.e. she stands in Church). 12 Patriarchs make her crown. It is remarkable, that in the Jewish language Zion is a feminine gender.
