NOTE

Interpretation of a Symbolic Representation

The woman in Chapter 12 is seen as representing the church and is symbolic of the church's efforts to build Zion on earth amidst opposition from Satan. The Nauvoo temple's architectural elements, such as the sun, moon, and stars, are interpreted as representing the woman clothed with the sun, the moon at the bottom, and the stars at the top. The focus is on building Zion rather than associating the temple with specific kingdom classifications. The covenants made in the temple are linked to the language of building the kingdom of God, aligning with the symbolism in Chapter 12 verse 1.
