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

Revelation 14:6-8And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach.The angel in mid-heavenI. The revival of a missionary spirit in the Church of Christ. We say a revival, for that spirit not only formed a necessary element all through the new dispensation, but it had its recognised place in the old. How many of the prophets of Judah and Israel, in varied words and imagery, exulted in the prospect of times when the exclusive privileges of the... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Revelation 14:1-20

IV. THE SEVEN TRUMPETS, Revelation 7:1 to Revelation 20:10. Of the trumpets, the first four are mundane, or earthly; each of the four blasts draws down a judgment upon some creational point, as earth, sea, fountains and rivers; firmamental luminaries. It is the sins of men that draw down these bolts of wrath, rendering every point of creation hostile to our peace. “Cursed is the ground for thy sake,” (Genesis 3:17,) is the key-note. This sad status of humanity has existed through all past... read more
