What represents the 4 horsemen of Revelation? (Part 3)

*Black horse* :

•    Rev 6:5,6 -> “And when He had opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, Come and see. And I looked, and lo, a black horse. And he sitting on it had a balance in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures say, A choenix of wheat for a denarius, and three choenixes of barley for a denarius. And do not hurt the oil and the wine.”.

This horse is called by the third living being (like a man). The man is to be the king of all creation (Gen 1:28). Jesus, as a holy and pure man, righteous, without blot, blemish, is pictured by the white color. But the antichrist is the man of the iniquity (2Thess 2:3), of the enmity (hence his horse is black, the color which portrays injustice, hatred – 1John 2:9-11):

•    2Th 2:3,4 -> “Let not anyone deceive you by any means. For that Day shall not come unless there first comes a falling away, and the man of sin shall be revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, setting himself forth, that he is God.”.

When, even after all dissidence, the Jewish kept on doing their cults in the temple, the antichrist will try to eliminate the chief element of the Jewish cult in order to preclude them to worship other god that isn’t him.

Wheat, barley, oil and wine are elements that constitutes the base of food of Israelites (see Lev 27:16; Num 5:15; Deut 8:8; Ruth 2:23; 2Sam 21:19; 2Kings 7:1; 2Chr 2:10,15; 27:5; Joel 1:11; John 6:9,13), as well as they are the main element in the Judaic cult.

Note that he exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshipped. Hence he will destruct the wheat and barley. He will allow that Israelites have access only to the portion of these two elements who will allow them to eat. They will have to choose between use these elements to worship the Creator or to eat.

The wheat is more expensive because its use in the Judaic cult is bigger.

Observe this appeal in Joel’s time:

•    Joe 2:13,14 -> “Yes, tear your heart and not your robes, and turn to Jehovah your God: for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and He pities because of the evil.  Who knows if He will turn and have pity and leave a blessing behind Him, a food offering and a drink offering to Jehovah your God?”

The wine isn’t destroyed by antichrist because this is the best drink used by Jews to get drunkard, lose the conscience and, thus, deliver themselves to the dirties of the prostitution of the Great Babylon (see Rev 18:3).

As to the olive oil, it is used in the production of perfumes, which is used by the harlots in order to enchant people so that they can give in to the prostitution and to the worshipping of the antichrist.

In short: how the Israelites won’t be worshipping the true God, the Creator, in His anger, will say like this:

•    Jer 13:25 -> “This is your lot, the portion I have measured out to you, declares the LORD, because you have forgotten me and trusted in lies.”.

When the person is right before the Creator, behold His blessing:

•    Luk 6:38 -> “give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”.

Have a good day. Tomorrow we will carry on.
