The American White Horse Prophecy

Escondido, CA – June 18, 2012 – In some recent media circles it has been discussed the concept of the White Horse Prophecy, sometimes with belief, some with skepticism and others with mockery.  Is this White Horse Prophecy relevant for today?  Is this White Horse Prophecy a mystical religious idea based on someone’s vivid imagination or is it a prophecy of the future?  The communities of faith have overlooked and some simply ignored what significance this White Horse Prophecy in the first place is all about.  They all have been depending upon what everyone else has to say on the matter, instead of investigating the authority of the translations and its translator for oneself.   

Rabbi Yellen from Hebrew Conservative Union (HCU) has taken this matter into a closer look regarding what the White Horse Prophecy from Joseph Smith and the Book of Revelation is all about.  He investigated this matter and explains its origins saying, “The White Horse Prophecy was given by the Prophet Joseph Smith before he was martyred in the year 1844.”  Rabbi Yellen says, “In order to fully understand this White Horse Prophecy, first of all, we need to understand who is Joseph Smith and what is his background and education.” Joseph Smith was educated by a Sephardic Hebrew Professor Joshua Seixas with the knowledge of Hebrew language and Hebrew symbolic interpretation.  The close investigation reveals that Joseph Smith was indeed very well acquainted with Hebrew symbolism and Hebrew phraseology. Rabbi Yellen has dedicated his time translating ancient texts and scriptures and took interest to analyze the Prophet Joseph Smith’s writings of the White Horse Prophecy.  In his research, Rabbi Yellen has reached to the conclusion that Joseph Smith’s writings reflect a Mishnah and Targumic language of phraseology.

Rabbi Yellen continues:  “To better understand, the White Horse Prophecy one must understand the ancient phraseology and Hebrew symbolism.  Many scholars today have forgotten or misunderstood many ancient Hebrew symbols and have confused them with pagan symbolism, and I say this respectfully.  Keeping in mind that Joseph Smith made clear in his introduction of the White Horse Prophecy that he was about speak “like John the Revelator.”  This prefacing statement is letting his audience know that he will speak in symbolism and Hebrew metaphor, a language that only those who understand the etymological words of Hebrew language, its Mishnah and Targumic language of phraseology.”

For example, the word for “Horse” for many scholars it means “power and judgment”, while in the Hebrew understanding is more profound meaning “A Scholar Teacher”  conveying that the Horse is representing a Spiritual teacher that is to appear at End of Days according to the White Horse Prophecy.  Because Joseph Smith introduced the phrase “like John the Revelator” this gives a hint that is referring to the well known apocalyptic appearance of the four horses.  Rabbi Yellen believes that the “four horses of Revelation has a link to the American White Horse Prophecy.”  He and his team investigated the entire chapter of Revelation 5, 6, 7, 8 and commenced into chapter 9.  The four horses of the book of Revelation according to the Aramaic text known as the Peshitta text along with ancient writings of the Prophets in its original language are compatible to the Received Text Judeo-Greek’s presentation as long as one uses the dictionary of the ancient Hebrew scholars.  Rabbi Yellen explains that the word horse in Revelation is “סוסיא” and the etymological root of the word means the “smooth vessel with fringes” with this mind, it will break the code as to whom and what is the identity of the White Horse.   Rabbi Yellen says, “that word is in essence a Scholar Levitical Teacher of the Sanctuary, in other words “A High Priest with the Breast-bowl of the Priesthood.” 

“Joseph Smith had knowledge of the ancient so called ‘plates of Egypt’ says Rabbi Yellen continues saying, “the plates of Egypt is an expression within the writings of the sages known as the ancient Cup of Joseph.  His father Jacob bequeathed that “stone of Israel” to him in the book of Genesis.  That cup-bowl-scepter was eventually was passed down at birth to the Prophet Moses and became known at his birth as the ‘Tabut (relic) of Moses’, which by the Exodus became the well known, the Stone-basket Vessel of Manna.  Interestingly enough, this Vessel became the breast-bowl or multiple uncut gem stone constellations and multicolored breast-plates as it is commonly known today.” Rabbi Yellen also noticed that the word Egypt has various spelling on the ancient sacred text of Torah. One may ask, why so many variant spelling for the word Egypt?  The term has to do with either persons or lands requiring healing and the term expresses that information.  The high priest was the chief attending physician of the era and as guardian of the vessel would have access to the Urim and Thummim (white stone and black stone) to consult directly to the Creator GOD for instructions.  States Rabbi Yellen, “the vessel served as a direct phone line to heaven and the history of King David confirms this.”  Joseph Smith’s martyrdom is directly related to his proper translation of the ancient texts and his unique understanding of the long sought after relic of the prophet Moses. This significant matter is discussed in the youtube presentation below.

What are the meanings of the four horses? Many hold to beliefs that mankind is waiting for apocalyptic destruction, while in fact, Rabbi Yellen says that is not the case revealed in the textual evidences here.   “The four horses have been taken out of context and without proper translation due to lack of understanding Hebrew expressions.”  Rabbi Yellen reveals that the four horses represent according to Hebrew understanding four distinct groups of Spiritual teachers such as the White Horse – High Priest with the Breast-bowl; Black Horse represents a Judge; Red Horse – Red Mantle of Authority to scholarship and health; and the Pale Horse – an authority of vegetarianism.  In addition, the expression of each of the colors of horses describes the smooth stone-vessel of Moses, the sacred cup known in the Middle Ages as the long forgotten lost Holy Grail. 

Sadly, today religious movements have depicted these four horses as some kind of destroyers of the world and brought elements of fear into their congregations.  Historically these apocalyptic images were used to bring coercion into communities to submit to the authority of the ecclesiastical powers of that era.  The only way to combat with those wrong views is to present the factual evidence in the interlinear format and show textual authority along with factual evidences of what the text was describing:  The relic of Moses and its significance. 

There might be those that feel threatened by this factual finding however, truth is stronger and will set nations free of superstitious myth and falsehoods of ignorance and illiteracy.  The presentation of more details of what Joseph Smith conveyed to his listeners before he died as a martyr is in a slide presentation below for those that seek to understand their heritage.
