And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.

Verse 6 is found in chapter 4 of Revelation. Around the throne appear twenty-four elders and four living creatures. The elders’ crowns and their position around the throne underscore a heavenly court scene, but their function culminates in worship, not autonomy. The four living creatures evoke creatures associated with the visions of Ezekiel and Isaiah and continually proclaim God’s holiness. The eyes express vigilance and perception, while the six wings recall the language of Isaiah 6. Heavenly worship establishes the theological framework for interpreting the events that follow.
