Horseman

ܦ݁ܰܪܳܫܶܐ

A rider on a horse. The plural frequently refers to a cavalry (Exodus 14:9-28; Joshua 24:6; 1 Samuel 8:11 ). This association of horsemen with armed forces perhaps sparked the use of the four riders of Revelation 6:2-8 as symbols of military conquest, war, economic injustice, and death and Hades.
