What is the difference between White and Pale Horses?
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse supposedly ride horse's of white, red, black, and pale respectively. I get the white, red, and black horse's, but what is a pale horse....I hear pale horse and think white, but that's already been used so I doubt it's the same. Can anyone tell me the difference between a white and pale horse.

pale is kind of a vague translation. the original word means yellowish green or pallid, like the color of a corpse. it's also been described as ashen. basically it's the sickly color of death. https://images.fineartamerica.com/images-medium-la... this is about the color on a real horse, it's kind of a gross looking blond

Th pale horse is also translated to the ashen horse in some translations. It is the horse ridden by Death and is the color of a corpse.
