In Bible times, the term "horsemen" often referred to men who rode horses into battle.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Horses were used to pull chariots and carts.
|
||
|
|
* The people of Israel, however, did not maintain a large number of horsemen.
|
||
|
|
* They believed that the use of horses in battle was a pagan custom that placed too much emphasis on power for victory rather than on Yahweh.
