Verse 11
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
And I saw the heaven opened — This is a new and peculiar opening of it, in order to show the magnificent expedition of Christ and his attendants, against his great adversary.
And behold a white horse — Many little regarded Christ, when he came meek, "riding upon an ass;" but what will they say, when he goes forth upon his white horse, with the sword of his mouth? White - Such as generals use in solemn triumph.
And he that sitteth on him, called Faithful — In performing all his promises.
And True — In executing all his threatenings.
And in righteousness — With the utmost justice.
He judgeth and maketh war — Often the sentence and execution go together.
Be the first to react on this!
