Smart Search on Tribulation Saints

Query: Who are the "tribulation saints" (Verbum 40)

All Search Synopsis states:
… An article mentions that these believers will stand by a sea and sing "the song of Moses," reminiscent of the Israelites after the Exodus[3].

It is taken from "This entire scene is reminiscent of Israel following the Exodus. The nation had been delivered from Egypt by the blood of the lamb, and the Egyptian army had been destroyed at the Red Sea. In thankfulness to God, the Israelites stood by the sea and sang “the song of Moses.”
The Tribulation saints whom John saw and heard were standing by the “sea of glass” in heaven (Rev. 4:6), just as the Israelites stood by the Red Sea. They were singing “the song of Moses” and also “the song of the Lamb.” (Rev 15:1-4, BEC).

The fourth line is likely where "stand by a sea" comes from (I won't mention the interpretation of Rev 4:6).

Books Search Synopsis does not include that statement, although the same book [3] is included.

The Summary of that article is much more accurate i.e. "The article draws parallels between the Tribulation saints and the Israelites after the Exodus…".

This emphasizes the need to "Check it for accuracy" as my initial reaction was that Pretrib got it wrong yet again!

All Search Synopsis in Logos 40 does not include [3], and is better balanced.
