"Moon = Rachel = Church?"


 
Dear Doves

Due to the recent lunar eclipse, I started to think what exactly the
moon represents.

When Joseph (the son of Jacob) dreamt about the Sun, Moon and the
Stars, the Moon represented his mother Rachel.
As we know, Jacob (the father of Joseph) was married to Leah and
Rachel, who (according to some posts of other Doves) represent Israel
and the Church. So if the moon represents Rachel who represents the
church, then can we consider that the moon represents the church?

Following this thought, a lunar eclipse could be understood that the
church gets hidden (raptured?) for a while until  the "shadow of the
earth" (tribulation?) passes. Could it be any simpler than that?

Do others have any thoughts on that?

Be blessed! Josua
