THE FOUR HORSEMEN OF THE APOCALYPSE.


Translated from Spanish into English by Google Translate.

This time I want to share a brief study of the prophecy of Revelation 6.5, which is being fulfilled before our eyes in Europe, who is devastated by the crisis. But to get on topic, let’s see what they mean before the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

1. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse

6 And I saw when the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures, screaming voice of thunder, «Come!» 2 I looked, and behold a white horse! The rider had a bow, was given a crown, and came out as the winner, to continue beating.
3 When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second beast, who shouted, «Come!» 4 That came another horse, bright red. The rider was given a large sword, was permitted to take peace from the earth, and its inhabitants to kill each other.
5 When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living beings, who shouted, «Come» I looked, and there was a black horse! The rider had a balance in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice among the four living creatures saying, «A kilo of wheat, or three kilos of barley for a day’s salary, but not afectes the price of oil and the wine.»
7 When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast, who shouted, «Come!» 8 I looked, and behold a pale horse! The rider was named Death, and Hell followed close behind. And they were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine, epidemics and the beasts of the earth. Rev. 6.6 – 8. NIV [3]
            Before entering into the subject itself, let’s clarify some symbolism of «the four horsemen of the» Apocalypse «. Riders are not historical figures but four lawsuits from God because of the wickedness of man. They have a history [4] in Zechariah 6.1-5: «These are the four winds (RUAG heb. = Spirits) of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.»
