And He that sat upon on the white horse; that is the Lord Jesus Christ. \ had a bow and a crown; That is, he first converted, and then crowned his converts, and made them a royal priesthood. \ Thine arrows are sharp in the hearts of the kings enemies;( ride prosperously). Therefore the people fall under thee. \ So our Lord and King Jesus, did in the ministry of the gospel.
