a number 

A Color – 

A guide to interpretation.  You can trust numbers and maybe colors to be reliably translated.  Not so much with the other words.  The “words of God” are seen differently by the many different bible translators.  Who can you trust?  Historians.  What can you trust?  Maybe numbers.  Historians may have trouble with dates but they do get close enough.

A Sea – 

A location.  The color of the horses is a clue from whence they came.  Start with the Red and Black seas.  The white sea is a little tricky.  The Mediterranean and Aegean seas are also known as the white sea.  Like numbers, colors are translated accurately.  No room for interpretation.  The translators all agree on numbers and colors.

A Prince – 

A general or other?  Good luck if you are looking for the king of the north.  The translators can’t agree on Daniel 11:5.  24 think he was a prince and 28 think he was anything but a prince.  princes 24, commanders 11, officers 7, officials 5, generals 2, leaders 2, subordinates 1 – Go figure.  Who can you trust?  What can you trust?  Numbers and history.

a prophecy 

A History – 

A fulfillment of prophecy.  Only history can verify the fulfillment of prophecy.  Only numbers can verify the interpretation of prophecy.  The translators and interpreters of the bible can’t seem to agree on most of the words but somehow they agree on the numbers.  The word of God may vary but not His numbers.  Follow the numbers.  And colors.

a translator 

A Bible – 

A version of each translation.  Before the printer, no two bibles were alike.  Now no two translations are alike.  And there are way too many.  About 60 English translations.  Each translation has more than one version.  So the “Word of God” is subject to translations, revisions, and interpretation.  For the most part they agree on numbers.  And colors.

a history 

A Fulfillment of Prophecy –

A connection with numbers that can be trusted.  Your interpretation, not so much.  Translators can’t be trusted but somehow they get the numbers right.  If you have an ear, listen to what numbers and history can tell you.  It is the only way the fulfillment of prophecy can be confirmed.  Anything else is just someone’s interpretation.

A Third John – 

A companion in tribulation.  Chrysostom was in Ephesus replacing seven corrupt bishops.  He could have gone to Patmos for the word of God.  He must have known about Jerome who was translating the bible and that many believed the Apocalypse didn’t belong in the bible unless of course it was written by the Apostle.  He could find out.
