# Revelation 7 General Notes
|
||||
|
||||
### Structure and formatting
|
||||
|
||||
Scholars have interpreted parts of this chapter in many different ways. Translators do not need to fully understand what this chapter means to accurately translate its contents. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-apocalypticwriting]])
|
||||
|
||||
It is important to accurately translate the large numbers in this chapter. The number 144,000 is twelve times twelve thousand.
|
||||
|
||||
Translators should be aware that the tribes of the people of Israel are not listed in this chapter the same as they are generally listed in the Old Testament.
|
||||
|
||||
Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in verses 5-8 and 15-17.
|
||||
|
||||
### Special concepts in this chapter
|
||||
|
||||
#### Worship
|
||||
God saves his people and keeps them through times of trouble. His people respond by worshipping him. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/worship]])
|
||||
|
||||
### Important figures of speech in this chapter
|
||||
|
||||
#### The Lamb
|
||||
This refers to Jesus. In this chapter, it is also a title for Jesus. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
