Bible Trivia - 10/24/2008

Question: Which one of Revelation’s seals revealed a rider on a white horse?

Answer: 1st. (Revelation 6:1-2)

Comments: The first four seals in Revelation reveal the horses and riders of the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalyspe". At the opening of the first seal, a rider on a white steed is unveiled. The rider carries a bow with no arrows, and wears a crown. The white horse and its rider traditionally represent Conquest.

Then I saw when the Lamb broke one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a voice of thunder, "Come." I looked, and behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer. (Revelation 6:1-2, NASB)

In Revelation 19, another rider on a white horse is revealed - a triumphant Jesus. (Revelation 19:11)
