“And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.”
She gave birth to a son, a male child, who will rule all nations with an iron scepter - the child is plainly Christ, whose rule is prophesied in Psalm 2:9 and who will execute God's judgment and dominion. The phrase 'iron scepter' signals both the authority and the severity of messianic rule over the rebellious nations.
