Appendix to The White Horse

APPENDIX TO THE WHITE HORSE

When the Lamb opened the seals of the book
horses went out in order,
first a white horse,
second a red horse, third a black horse, and fourth a pale horse.
(Revelation vi 1-8)

It is obvious
that by the book whose seals the Lamb opened
the Word is meant,
out of which nothing else could come except the understanding of it.
What other meaning could horses coming out of an opened book have!

It is clear that a horse means the understanding of truth
and a chariot doctrine from the same words . . . .

A falsified and ruined understanding of truth that is in the Word
is also meant by the red, black, and pale horses of Revelation vi 4, 5, 8
