{Notes & Review: This chapter is a stand alone insert. Believers are the bride of the manchild/Son of man. Non Hebrew people once they are united to Jesus become a part of Israel, they are “grafted into the commonwealth” - Review: a great sign - a virgin conceived. The dragon, via Herod the Great, tried to destroy the manchild, but instead He is at the right hand of God. The adversary was angered->70 CE, a first migration (in the age of our Lord, A.D.) of the faith->white horse gone/going forth. Then there’s a battle in heaven and the dragon is cast out, and no longer allowed access to heaven.}
13 When the dragon saw that he was cast to earth, he persecuted (inquisitioned) the woman (the faith) which had brought forth the man child. 14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly (sail via the wind) into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time (a 3.5 measure of time, 1620+350?) AWAY from the face (cruel inquisitions) of the serpent. (Eagle wings - a good beginning - not perfect - but like most things goes into decline and decomposing/corruption. Most often getting hijacked and infiltrated. I know I repeat myself over and over. But how can I not mention the ever popular, world’s “false prophet” [“the field is the world”] who’s “strong delusion” of “seating man/anthropos as in the temple as God”/highest power, caused a great “falling away”.)
15 And the serpent (guise of the dragon) poured water like a river out of his mouth after the woman, so that he might cause her to be swept away with the flood (washed off of the earth). 16 But the earth helped her and swallowed the flood that had come from the dragon's mouth. (Widespread drought coming? $ity Babble on 7hills/continents, falls/crashes?) [From the dragon’s mouth - Rev.16:13? The flood becomes part of the gathering to Armageddon battle?-Mt.13:30. Unholy ‘trinity’ (rev.16:13) - the dragon, the beast (many headed geopolitical) and the false prophet who will greatly expound on what came out of the mouth of the dragon? Note: The false prophet enabled Rev.13:13, but is not the “little horn”/beast. The 13:13 event pinpointed an OFFICE, not (yet) an individual.]
[Cross Reference: Mt.23:39 - “I tell you [Jerusalem] you will not see me (Jesus) again UNTIL you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD!”] 17 And the dragon was angry against the woman, and went to make war with the rest of her children, who keep the commandments of God, and (by now) have the testimony of Jesus Christ. (Rev.7:4, which in most part follows vs.9.) And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea..
