REVELATION—NOTE ON Revelation 14:3 The new song celebrates God’s triumph over sin through the Lamb (Revelation 5:9; Revelation 15:3). God’s prior victories were also celebrated in new songs (Psalms 98:1). The song belongs only to those who have experienced the Lamb’s redemption (Psalms 107:1). This is another indication that 144,000 represents those who have been redeemed rather than an actual number (see notes on Rev. 7:1–17; 7:4–8; 7:9).
