Revelation 14:5
Revelation 14:4 These are they which were not defiled with women. This thought is always a symbol of purity of life; of refusing sinful intercourse with the world. Spiritual adultery or fornication is being wedded to the world and partaking of its sins. For they are virgins. This term is a symbol, and means that their lives are not defiled by the world. See II Corinthians 11:2. [Being] the firstfruits unto God, and to the Lamb. First fruits were always dedicated to God. See Numbers 18:12. These holy ones are set apart and dedicated to God and the Lamb.
