This imagery is rooted in the Passover lamb of <a href="/exodus/12.htm">Exodus 12</a> and the prophetic vision of the suffering servant in <a href="/isaiah/53.htm">Isaiah 53</a>. In Revelation, the Lamb symbolizes victory through sacrifice, contrasting with worldly power.standing on Mount Zion Mount Zion is a significant biblical location, often representing the city of Jerusalem and the spiritual center of God's kingdom. It is associated with God's presence and the fulfillment of His promises. In prophetic literature, Zion is depicted as the place where God will establish His rule and gather His people (<a href="/psalms/2-6.htm">Psalm 2:6</a>, <a href="/isaiah/2-2.htm">Isaiah 2:2-3</a>).and with Him 144,000 The 144,000 is a symbolic number representing a complete and perfect group of God's people. It is derived from the 12 tribes of Israel multiplied by 12,000, indicating fullness and divine order. This group is first mentioned in <a href="/revelation/7-4.htm">Revelation 7:4</a>, where they are sealed for protection during tribulation.who had His name and His Father’s name written on their foreheads The writing of names on the foreheads signifies ownership and protection by God. It contrasts with the mark of the beast mentioned in <a href="/revelation/13-16.htm">Revelation 13:16-17</a>. This imagery reflects the ancient practice of marking slaves or soldiers to indicate allegiance. The seal represents the believers' identity in Christ and their dedication to God, echoing the priestly blessing in <a href="/numbers/6-24.htm">Numbers 6:24-27</a>.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/t/the_lamb.htm">The Lamb</a> Represents Jesus Christ, the sacrificial Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.

The Saviour, the Lamb, in whose blood the saints have found their victory, is seen standing on the citadel of the heavenly city. Babylon is to be introduced (<a href="/revelation/14-8.htm" title="And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.">Revelation 14:8</a>). In contrast, Zion, the chosen abode of God (<a href="/context/psalms/132-13.htm" title="For the LORD has chosen Zion; he has desired it for his habitation.">Psalm 132:13-18</a>), the type of the spiritual city whose citizens are true to the King (comp. <a href="/psalms/2-6.htm" title="Yet have I set my king on my holy hill of Zion.">Psalm 2:6</a>; <a href="/psalms/74-2.htm" title="Remember your congregation, which you have purchased of old; the rod of your inheritance, which you have redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein you have dwelled.">Psalm 74:2</a>; <a href="/context/hebrews/12-22.htm" title="But you are come to mount Sion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,">Hebrews 12:22-24</a>), is introduced. There are to be seen the Lamb, set as King upon the holy hill of Zion, and with Him the sealed ones, His faithful soldiers and servants. They are described as 144,000 in number: a number which represents the full growth of the choice ones of God, the true Israel of God. (See Note on <a href="/revelation/7-4.htm" title="And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.">Revelation 7:4</a>.)

Having described (<a href="/revelation/12.htm">Revelation 12</a>. and 13.) the trinity of enemies with which Christ and his people contend, the vision now passes on to depict the blessedness in store for the faithful Christian, and, on the other hand, the final fate of the dragon and his adherents. We are thus once more led to the final judgment. And just as in the former vision, after the assurance of the salvation of the faithful (<a href="/revelation/7.htm">Revelation 7</a>.), came the denunciation of woe for the ungodly (<a href="/revelation/8.htm">Revelation 8-11:14</a>), leading once more to a picture of the saved (<a href="/revelation/11-15.htm">Revelation 11:15-19</a>), so here we have the assured blessedness of the faithful portrayed (<a href="/revelation/14-1.htm">Revelation 14:1-13</a>), followed by the judgments upon the ungodly (<a href="/revelation/14-14.htm">Revelation 14:14 - 18:24</a>), and leading on once more to a picture of the saints in glory (<a href="/revelation/19.htm">Revelation 19</a>.). And, lo, a Lamb stood on the Mount Zion; and behold, the Lamb standing on the Mount Zion, as in the Revised Version. "The Lamb," with the article, referring to "the Lamb" described in <a href="/revelation/5.htm">Revelation 5</a>, whom the second beast had attempted to personate. He stands on Mount Zion (cf. <a href="/hebrews/12-22.htm">Hebrews 12:22</a>, "Mount Zion, the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem"). The appropriateness of the position is seen (1) in its strength (cf. the position of the beast, rising from the sea, perhaps standing on the sand, <a href="/revelation/13-1.htm">Revelation 13:1</a>; and cf. <a href="/psalms/87-1.htm">Psalm 87:1, 2</a>, "His foundation is in the holy mountains. The Lord loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob"). (2) Because there is the temple of God, in the midst of which is the Lamb, and there is the new Jerusalem (<a href="/revelation/21-2.htm">Revelation 21:2</a>). (3) Zion is the new Jerusalem, the opposite extreme to Babylon (ver. 8). And with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's Name written in their foreheads. The reading, τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸ ὅνομα τοῦ Πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, his Name and his Father's Name, adopted in the Revised Version, is supported by א, A, B, C, with most cursives, versions, and Fathers. Note the similarity to the description in <a href="/revelation/7.htm">Revelation 7</a>. Here, as there, the hundred and forty-four thousand are those "redeemed from the earth" (ver. 3). The number denotes a large and perfect number; a multitude of which the total is complete (see on Revelation 7:4). In <a href="/revelation/7.htm">Revelation 7</a>. the sealing in the forehead is described. This sign marks out the redeemed in contradistinction to those who have received the mark of the beast (<a href="/revelation/13-16.htm">Revelation 13:16</a>). <a href="/commentaries/revelation/14-1.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div>Then Καὶ (Kai) Conjunction <a href="/greek/strongs_2532.htm">Strong's 2532: </a> And, even, also, namely.
