Summary
In this thirty-fifth lecture, Fr. Athanasios reads Revelation 7 in relation to Revelation 14, Revelation 21, Matthew 25:1-13, Matthew 19:28, Acts 21:20, Galatians 3:28-29, and Genesis 49. He interprets the sealing after the Sixth Seal as the sign of the Precious Cross received freely by the faithful, and the 144,000 as a symbolic total rather than a literal headcount. Against Chiliast and Pentecostal calculations, he explains the number as twelve by twelve by one thousand, representing the new Israel of Grace formed through the Apostles among all nations. Following Saint Andrew of Caesarea, he treats the altered tribal list, Dan's omission, Manasseh's inclusion, and the names of the patriarchs as theological signals.
