“These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.”
These are those who did not defile themselves with women, for they remained virgins; they follow the Lamb wherever he goes; they were purchased from among mankind and offered as firstfruits to God and the Lamb - the language of virginity (purity) and following the Lamb (discipleship) marks them as entirely consecrated. As firstfruits, they represent the guarantee of the full harvest of redemption.
