The 144,000 mentioned in The Bible from Revelation 7:4 are all Jews (children of Israel). 12,000 from each of the 12 tribes of Israel.
Revelation 7:4
"And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed a hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel."
Answer #2:The 144,000 comprise the full number of God's people. Not by nationality but by spirituality. Far from fixated on race or gender, the number 144,000 is focused on relationship. The 144,000 are "a great multitude" that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people, and language. Just as the woman who rides the beast is symbolic of apostate Israel, so the 144,000 represent true Israel as it was intended to be, in perfect symmetry and providentially sealed.

Who are the 144000 sealed?
There are many interpretations of the number 144,000. The futurist interpretation is that this is a literal number of Jews, 12,000 from each of the twelve tribes of Israel, who become believers during the tribulation period. Others interpret the 144,000 not numerically but symbolically, as representing the totality of the elect of Israel (although some see this as the totality of Christians, or all believers, Jews and Christians). The Bible says the 144,000 were the "elect" of Israel, while the "multitude" is from all nations. Yet, some wonder if they were two separate groups or one in the same under different aspects.
