Revelation 7:1

[There is now an interruption between the sixth and seventh seals. The same structure with a parallel plot can also be found between the sixth and seventh trumpets, see chapters 10-11. The question asked in the previous chapter about who can stand is now answered. Two groups are described, the 144,000 and an innumerable multitude. The first group is Jews from the twelve tribes, the second is Gentiles from all nations. The first group is counted, the second is an innumerable multitude. The first group is marked here with God's seal, the second group stands in heaven before God's throne. If one reads Jesus' discourse on the last days from Matt. in parallel with this chapter, the 144,000 may be God's special witnesses during the tribulation, see Matt. 24:14.]
After this, I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth [the four cardinal points] holding back the four winds of the earth so that no wind would blow over the earth or the sea or any tree. [Wind is often used symbolically for God's Judg., see Jer. 18:17; 49:36–37; Dan. 7:2.]
