Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Revelation 14:5

Not that any liveth and sinneth not against God, but it is to be understood comparatively; they are without fault in comparison of the rest of the world, they have not in them the guile of hypocrisy, they are sincere. Or, possibly by guile is here understood a lie. All idolaters are liars, Romans 1:25, and idols are called lies, Jeremiah 16:19; Amos 2:4. Mr. Mede expoundeth this text by Zephaniah 3:13. The words may either more generally signify the holiness of these persons, in opposition to... read more

And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the Mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Fathers name written in their foreheads. And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: and they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Revelation 14:1-20

Chapter 14And I looked, and, lo, there was a Lamb standing on the mount Zion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads ( Revelation 14:1 ).Now back in chapter seven, we remember that these one hundred and forty-four thousand were sealed of God in their foreheads.

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Revelation 14:1-20

Revelation 14:1-5 . Lo, a Lamb, the Lord Christ, stood on mount Zion, and with him a hundred and forty four thousand, whom he had redeemed to God by his blood. Here is the church of the firstborn, both jews and gentiles, distinguished as the first heirs of glory, and our forerunners to heaven, the redeemed, the washed, the elect of God. Yet their best portion, as the first heirs of glory, does not obstruct the salvation of others. All there is light, glory, and joy, at the nuptials of the... read more
