The 144000 persons of Revelation 14 are not a literal number of people. It is a figurative number reflecting those that come through the end time of trouble. They are virgins in that they are pure in faith keeping the 10 commandments of God and faithful to the teachings of Jesus Christ. They do not prostitute themselves with false doctrine or teachings. They are part of the elect found in Matt. They are not all Jews as the Jews are decendants of the tribes of Judah and Benjamine. The other 10 tribes have been scattered over the entire earth. The elect are any persons who study the word of God, find truth and hold to the teachings of Jesus Christ not believing in the false teachings of other religious leaders who decieve many by teaching things people want to hear. It is only those who study the word carefully that will not be decieve and thus will inherit the kingdom with Christ.

Why are Dan and Ephraim not mentioned with the 144000 in Revelation?

Dan and Ephraim are not mentioned among the 144,000 in Revelation 7, which lists 12,000 from each of the twelve tribes of Israel. Some interpretations suggest that this omission may be due to Dan's association with idolatry in the Old Testament, as seen in Judges 18. Additionally, Ephraim, being part of the northern kingdom of Israel, is sometimes viewed as representing a larger collective that may be encompassed by the tribe of Joseph, which is included in the listing. This reflects the complexities of biblical lineage and the symbolic nature of the tribes in apocalyptic literature.
