In context
AI-assisted, sourcedRevelation 7:1-8The sealing of the servants of God
About Revelation 7Four angels hold back the four winds until "we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads," and John hears the number sealed: "an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel." Then he sees "a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues," in white robes before the throne, crying, "Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb." An elder explains, "These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb," and "God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes."
