The meaning of Horseman in the Bible
(From Easton's Bible Dictionary)
Heb. ba'al parash, "master of a horse." The "horsemen" mentioned Exodus 14:9 were "mounted men", i.e., men who rode in chariots. The army of Pharaoh consisted of a chariot and infantry force. We find that at a later period, however, the Egyptians had cavalry (II Chronicles 12:3). (See HORSE .)
