what are the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse and what does each stand for?

Answer 1

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are mentioned in the Bible in chapter six of the Book of Revelation. The four horsemen are traditionally named Pestilence, War, Famine, and Death. However, this is slightly at odds with the conventional interpretation of the Bible, which actually only directly names the fourth: "Death". They also mention colors of the horses and what the riders are carrying but the four traditional names pretty much sum up what they stand for.

Answer 2

Revelation 6:1-8 tells of these horsemen these are angels set out upon the earth the first on the white horse he had a bow and a crown was given to him and he went forth conquering to conquer the second on the red horse was given the power to take away peace and make war the third on the black horse is famine and the forth on the pale horse is death.
