In context
AI-assisted, sourcedRevelation 6:1-8The four horsemen
About Revelation 6As the Lamb opens the first four seals, four horsemen go out: a white horse whose rider "went forth conquering, and to conquer," a red horse given power "to take peace from the earth," a black horse whose rider has "a pair of balances," and "a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him." At the fifth seal John sees "the souls of them that were slain for the word of God" crying "How long, O Lord," and they are given white robes and told to rest a little while. At the sixth seal there is a great earthquake, the sun becomes black and the moon "as blood," and people hide from "the wrath of the Lamb," for "the great day of his wrath is come."
