Revelation6:5

The third beast - That which had the face of a man.

A black horse - The emblem of famine. Some think that which took place under Claudius. See Mat 24:7; the same which was predicted by Agabus, Act 11:28.

A pair of balances - To show that the scarcity would be such, that every person must be put under an allowance.
