Revelation 7

Commentary

Revelation 7 is a chapter of great hope and comfort for the people of God. It begins with a vision of four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the winds of destruction until the servants of God are sealed. This is a powerful image of God's protection and care for His people. The vision then shifts to a great multitude of people from every nation, tribe, people, and language, standing before the throne of God and the Lamb. This is a powerful reminder of the universality of God's love and grace, and of the hope of salvation for all who believe. The chapter then goes on to describe the great multitude of people wearing white robes and holding palm branches, a symbol of victory and joy. This is a reminder of the ultimate victory that will be won by those who remain faithful to God. Finally, the chapter ends with a vision of the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, surrounded by the 144,000 who have been sealed by God. This is a powerful reminder of the ultimate victory that will be won by those who remain faithful to God. Revelation 7 is a chapter of great hope and comfort for the people of God.
