The Sun, the Moon, and the Stars are 3 forms of government

To understand the Bible's inner message the Sun and the Moon are the primaries. The Moon is the written " Law of Justice ." It is Moses's " eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth." Ex.21;24 At the end of each day's creation in Genesis it says " and the evening and the morning was the....day." Gen.1;5 Although this described time-period is the period of darkness they take it for the light. This is the Moon's light under which people live before the arrival of Christianity.(The Sun) The people following the Law of Justice continue even through the 6th day to take the night for the daytime. Their light is Moses instead of Jesus.
With the Sun's arrival on the 4th day people were then able to choose which light they followed and lived their lives under. The brighter light of the Sun(Christianity) was much more dazzling. But some people still continued to bow their backs, squint their eyes and carry on still under the light of the Moon. They didn't hear the shepard's voice. Jn.10;3 The Christian people who now live under the Sun have the Law inside themselves instead of following a strict mercyless law written in stone. They have it in their hearts and minds. Jer.31;33 Heb.8;10 The Stars were the Prophets that brought us little twinklings of light that also help our understanding.

Hi Dan, can I share my opinion on the Sun, Moon and Stars. I am coming from a very different perspective. I hope you do not mind

Matthew 24:29 says, "'Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven ... .'" Should these calamities come to pass, then it would seem that God's pupose for His Creation could not be fulfilled. Then, what is the meaning of these predictions?

Genesis 37:9,10 gives us an insight. There we find the interpretation of one of Joseph's dreams, in which the sun symbolizes the father, the moon symbolizes the mother, and the stars, their children. Jesus and the Holy Spirit give rebirth to fallen man and thus stand in the position of father and mother.

Therefore, in the New Testament (Mt 24:29),I believe the sun and the moon represent Jesus and the Holy Spirit, who are the source of the light of truth which illuminates the spirit and heart of mankind, and the stars represent the believers (Christians), who are the "children" of Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

Viewed in this manner, the sunlight symbolizes the light of truth of Jesus' words, and the moonlight symbolizes the light of the Holy Spirit. To say that the sun and the moon will be darkened is to say that the light of a new expression of the truth will outshine that of Jesus and the Holy Spirit (i.e., the New Testament).

How is this possible? Just as the Old Testament was outshone when Jesus and the Holy Spirit came with new words that were to fulfill the Old Testament, when Christ comes again with a new expression of the truth. As he told us, he has much more to say when the time come, the words of the new testament will be outshone.

For truth to lose its light means that the period of its mission has ended with the coming of an age for a new expression of the truth. The "stars" falling from heaven represent those Christians in the Last Days who do not accept the truth from the lord and thus lose their position as the children of God.

The reason that the Moon is symbolic in the Bible for the "law of justice," is because it comes before the Sunrise/Christianity. In Genesis it ends each day saying "and the evening and the morning were the first, second or third day."

The eye for and eye and tooth for a tooth Law of Mose's Old Testament came about before Jesus's New Testament Covenant.

Also;

The full light is for Jesus Christ. He is symbolized in the Bible in many places as the light of the world, the sun of righeousness ect.

The Moon/Old Covenant law, is but a reflexion of the full light of the Sun. As it was better in ancint days to be living under an unflexable stict and mercyless law of justice than to be left on the otherside of Jordan in the law of nature.(survival of the fittest)

The Moon just reflects some of the Sun's light.
