3. white--implying joy and victory
[CALVIN].
grizzled--piebald. Implying a mixed dispensation, partly
prosperity, partly adversity. All four dispensations, though various in
character to the Gentile nation, portended alike good to God's people.
bay--rather, "strong" or "fleet"; so Vulgate
[GESENIUS]. The horses
have this epithet, whose part it was to "walk to and fro through the
earth"
(Zec 6:7).
However, the Septuagint and Chaldee agree with English
Version in referring the Hebrew to color, not
strength.
