Question source
Zechariah
Zechariah sees a man on a red horse standing among myrtle trees, with other horses behind him in Zechariah 1:8. They report that they have patrolled the earth and found it at rest in Zechariah 1:10–11. The scene is part of the night visions given to Zechariah.
8I saw in the night, and, behold, a man riding on a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle-trees that were in the bottom; and behind him there were horses, red, sorrel, and white.
9Then said I, my lord, what are these? The angel who talked with me said to me, I will show you what these are.
10The man who stood among the myrtle-trees answered, These are they whom Yahweh has sent to walk back and forth through the earth.
11They answered the angel of Yahweh who stood among the myrtle-trees, and said, We have walked back and forth through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sits still, and is at rest.
