Revelation 4:4

Around (on all sides, like a circle) the throne were twenty-four [smaller] thrones, and on the thrones sat twenty-four elders dressed in white robes and wearing golden crowns (Gk. stefanos) on their heads.
[The priestly service in the temple was divided into 24 divisions, see 1 Chron. 24. The earthly temple is a picture of the heavenly temple. The number twelve represents God's people. The Israelites were divided into twelve tribes, Jesus called twelve disciples. The twenty-four elders, twelve plus twelve, probably represent God's people from both the Old and New Testaments. When the new Jerusalem is described, the city has twelve gates and twelve foundation stones. The names of the twelve tribes are written on the gates, and the names of the twelve apostles are written on the foundation stones, see Rev 21:12, 14.]
