Chariots are frequently mentioned throughout the Bible, symbolizing power, speed, and military strength. They played a significant role in the ancient Near Eastern cultures, including those of Egypt, Canaan, and Israel. Historical Context Chariots were introduced to the ancient Near East by the Hyksos, a Semitic people who ruled parts of Egypt during the Second Intermediate Period. By the time of the biblical narratives, chariots had become a crucial component of military strategy and were often associated with the might of a nation. The Egyptians, Hittites, and Assyrians were particularly known for their chariot forces. Biblical References 1. Military Use: Chariots are often depicted as instruments of war. In <a href="/exodus/14-6.htm">Exodus 14:6-7</a>, Pharaoh's pursuit of the Israelites is described: "So Pharaoh prepared his chariot and took his army with him. He took six hundred of the best chariots, along with all the other chariots of Egypt, with officers over all of them." This passage highlights the chariot's role in the Egyptian military. 2. Symbol of Power: In <a href="/1_kings/10-26.htm">1 Kings 10:26</a>, Solomon's wealth and power are illustrated by his accumulation of chariots: "Solomon accumulated chariots and horses; he had fourteen hundred chariots and twelve thousand horses, which he stationed in the chariot cities and also with him in Jerusalem." 3. Divine Intervention: Chariots are also used metaphorically to describe divine intervention. In <a href="/2_kings/6-17.htm">2 Kings 6:17</a>, Elisha's servant is shown a vision of divine protection: "And Elisha prayed, 'O LORD, please open his eyes that he may see.' And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw that the hills were full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha." 4. Prophetic Imagery: The prophets often used chariots as symbols in their messages. <a href="/isaiah/31.htm">Isaiah 31:1</a> warns against relying on military might instead of God: "Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, who rely on horses, who trust in the abundance of chariots and in the multitude of horsemen. They do not look to the Holy One of Israel; they do not seek the LORD." 5. Judgment and Deliverance: In the book of Revelation, chariots are part of the apocalyptic imagery. <a href="/revelation/9-9.htm">Revelation 9:9</a> describes the sound of the locusts' wings as "the sound of chariots with many horses rushing into battle," symbolizing the swiftness and intensity of divine judgment. Cultural and Theological Significance Chariots in the Bible often represent human reliance on military power and the futility of trusting in earthly strength over divine providence. They serve as a reminder of God's sovereignty and the ultimate victory of His purposes. The imagery of chariots of fire, as seen in the account of Elisha, underscores the presence and protection of God, even when unseen by human eyes. In summary, the chariot is a multifaceted symbol in the biblical narrative, representing both the might of earthly kingdoms and the superior power of divine intervention. Its presence in Scripture serves as a testament to the historical realities of the ancient world and the enduring spiritual truths conveyed through these accounts.<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div>Chariota vehicle used either for warlike or peaceful purposes, but most commonly the former. The Jewish chariots were patterned after the Egyptian, and consisted of a single pair of wheels on an axle, upon which was a car with high front and sides, but open at the back. The earliest mention of chariots in Scripture is in Egypt, where Joseph, as a mark of distinction, was placed in Pharaoh's second chariot. (<a href="/genesis/41-43.htm">Genesis 41:43</a>) Later on we find mention of Egyptian chariots for a warlike purpose. (<a href="/exodus/14-7.htm">Exodus 14:7</a>) In this point of view chariots among some nations of antiquity, as elephants among others, may be regarded as filling the place of heavy artillery in modern times, so that the military power of a nation might be estimated by the number of its chariots. Thus Pharaoh in pursuing Israel took with him 600 chariots. The Philistines in Saul's time had 30,000.

(<a href="/1_chronicles/19-7.htm">1 Chronicles 19:7</a>) Up to this time the Israelites possessed few or no chariots. They were first introduced by David, (<a href="/2_samuel/8-4.htm">2 Samuel 8:4</a>) who raised and maintained a force of 1400 chariots, (<a href="/1_kings/10-25.htm">1 Kings 10:25</a>) by taxation on certain cities agreeably to eastern custom in such matters. (<a href="/1_kings/9-19.htm">1 Kings 9:19</a>; <a href="/1_kings/10-25.htm">10:25</a>) From this time chariots were regarded as among the most important arms of war.

Sometimes, though but rarely, it is spoken of as used for peaceful purposes.The first mention of the chariot is when Joseph, as a Mark of distinction, was placed in Pharaoh's second state chariot (<a href="/genesis/41-43.htm">Genesis 41:43</a>); and the next, when he went out in his own chariot to meet his father Jacob (<a href="/genesis/46-29.htm">46:29</a>). Chariots formed part of the funeral procession of Jacob (<a href="/genesis/50-9.htm">50:9</a>). When Pharaoh pursued the Israelites he took 600 war-chariots with him (<a href="/exodus/14-7.htm">Exodus 14:7</a>). The Canaanites in the valleys of Palestine had chariots of iron (<a href="/joshua/17-18.htm">Joshua 17:18</a>; <a href="/judges/1-19.htm">Judges 1:19</a>). Jabin, the king of Canaan, had 900 chariots (<a href="/judges/4-3.htm">Judges 4:3</a>); and in Saul's time the Philistines had 30,000.

Solomon maintained as part of his army 1,400 chariots (<a href="/1_kings/10-26.htm">1 Kings 10:26</a>), which were chiefly imported from Egypt (29). From this time forward they formed part of the armies of Israel (<a href="/1_kings/22-34.htm">1 Kings 22:34</a>; <a href="/2_kings/9-16.htm">2 Kings 9:16</a>, 21; <a href="/2_kings/13-7.htm">13:7</a>, 14; <a href="/2_kings/18-24.htm">18:24</a>; <a href="/2_kings/23-30.htm">23:30</a>).In the New Testament we have only one historical reference to the use of chariots, in the case of the Ethiopian eunuch (<a href="/acts/8-28.htm">Acts 8:28</a>, 29, 38).This word is sometimes used figuratively for hosts (<a href="/psalms/68-17.htm">Psalm 68:17</a>; <a href="/2_kings/6-17.htm">2 Kings 6:17</a>). Elijah, by his prayers and his counsel, was "the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof." The rapid agency of God in the phenomena of nature is also spoken of under the similitude of a chariot (<a href="/psalms/104-3.htm">Psalm 104:3</a>; <a href="/isaiah/66-15.htm">Isaiah 66:15</a>; <a href="/habakkuk/3-8.htm">Habakkuk 3:8</a>).Chariot of the cherubim (<a href="/1_chronicles/28-18.htm">1 Chronicles 28:18</a>), the chariot formed by the two cherubs on the mercy-seat on which the Lord rides.Chariot cities were set apart for storing the war-chariots in time of peace (<a href="/2_chronicles/1-14.htm">2 Chronicles 1:14</a>).Chariot horses were such as were peculiarly fitted for service in chariots (<a href="/2_kings/7-14.htm">2 Kings 7:14</a>).Chariots of war are described in <a href="/exodus/14-7.htm">Exodus 14:7</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/13-5.htm">1 Samuel 13:5</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/8-4.htm">2 Samuel 8:4</a>; <a href="/1_chronicles/18-4.htm">1 Chronicles 18:4</a>; <a href="/joshua/11-4.htm">Joshua 11:4</a>; <a href="/judges/4-3.htm">Judges 4:3</a>, 13.

Figurative Use LITERATURE 1. Chariots of Egypt: It is to the chariots of ancient Egypt that reference is first made in Scripture. Joseph was honored by being made to ride in the second chariot of King Pharaoh (<a href="/genesis/41-43.htm">Genesis 41:43</a>). Joseph paid honor to his father on his arrival in Goshen by meeting him in his chariot (<a href="/genesis/46-29.htm">Genesis 46:29</a>). In the state ceremonial with which the remains of Jacob were escorted to Canaan, chariots and horsemen were conspicuous (<a href="/genesis/50-9.htm">Genesis 50:9</a>). In the narrative of the departure of the Israelites from Egypt and of Pharaoh's futile attempts to detain them the chariots and horsemen of Pharaoh figure largely (<a href="/exodus/14-17.htm">Exodus 14:17, 18, 23, 15</a>; <a href="/exodus/15-4.htm">Exodus 15:4, 19</a>). It was with the Hyksos invasion, some centuries before the Exodus, that the horse, and subsequently the chariot, were introduced for purposes of war into Egypt; and it may have been the possession of chariots that enabled those hated shepherd warriors to overpower the native Egyptians. The Egyptian chariot was distinguished by its lightness of build. It was so reduced in weight that it was possible for a man to carry his chariot on his shoulders without fatigue. The ordinary chariot was made of wood and leather, and had only two occupants, the fighting man and his shield-bearer. The royal chariots were ornamented with gold and silver, and in the battle of Megiddo Thothmes III is represented as standing in his chariot of electrum like the god of war, brandishing his lance. In the battle the victorious Egyptians captured 2,041 horses and 924 chariots from the Syrian allies. 2. Chariots of the Canaanites: The Canaanites had long been possessed of horses and chariots when Joshua houghed their horses and burnt their chariots with fire at the waters of Merom (<a href="/joshua/11-6.htm">Joshua 11:6, 9</a>). The chariots of iron which the Canaanites could maneuvere in the plains and valleys proved a formidable obstacle to the Complete conquest of the land (<a href="/judges/1-19.htm">Judges 1:19</a>). Jabin had 900 chariots of iron, and with them he was able to oppress the children of Israel twenty years (<a href="/judges/4-3.htm">Judges 4:3</a>). The Philistines of the low country and the maritime plain, of whom we read in Judges and Samuel, were a warlike people, were disciplined and well armed and their possession of chariots gave them a great advantage over the Israelites. In the war of Michmash they put into the field the incredible number of 30,000 chariots and 6,000 horsemen, only in the end to suffer a grievous defeat (<a href="/1_samuel/13-5.htm">1 Samuel 13:5</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/14-20.htm">1 Samuel 14:20</a>). In the battle of Gilboa, however, the chariots and horsemen of the Philistines bore down all opposition, and proved the destruction of Saul and his house. Of these chariots there have come down to us no detailed description and no representation. But we cannot be far wrong in turning to the chariot of the Hittites as a type of the Canaanite and Philistine chariot. It is not from the monuments of the Hittites themselves, however, but from the representations of the Kheta of the Egyptian monuments, that we know what their chariots were like. Their chariotry was their chief arm of offense. The Hittite chariot was used, too, for hunting; but a heavier car with paneled sides was employed for war. The Egyptian monuments represent three Hittites in each car, a practice which differed from that of Egypt and attracted attention. Of the three, one guided the chariot, another did the fighting with sword and lance, and the third was the shield-bearer. 3. Chariots of Solomon and Later Kings: The Israelites living in a mountainous country were tardy in adopting the chariot for purposes of war. David houghed all the chariot horses of Hadadezer, king of Zobah, and "reserved of them for a hundred chariots" (<a href="/2_samuel/8-4.htm">2 Samuel 8:4</a>), and Adonijah prepared for himself chariots and horsemen with a view to contest the throne of his father (<a href="/1_kings/1-5.htm">1 Kings 1:5</a>). But Solomon was the first in Israel to acquire chariots and horses on a national scale, and to build cities for their accommodation (<a href="/1_kings/9-19.htm">1 Kings 9:19</a>). In Massoretic Text of the Old Testament we read that Solomon had agents who received droves of horses from Egypt, and it is added: "And a chariot came up and went out of Egypt for 600 shekels of silver, and a horse for 150; and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Syria, did they bring them out by their means" (<a href="/1_kings/10-29.htm">1 Kings 10:29</a>). On the strength of a warrantable emendation of the text it is now proposed to read the preceding (<a href="/1_kings/10-28.htm">1 Kings 10:28</a>): "And Solomon's import of horses was from Mucri and from Kue; the king's traders received them from Kue at a price"-where Mucri and Kue are North Syria and Cilicia. No doubt it was Egypt out of which the nation was forbidden by the Deuteronomic law to multiply horses (<a href="/deuteronomy/17-16.htm">Deuteronomy 17:16</a>), but on the other hand the statement of Ezekiel (27:14) that Israel derived horses, chargers and mules not from Egypt but from Togarmah-North Syria and Asia Minor-agrees with the new rendering (Burney, Notes on Hebrew Text of the Books of Kings, in the place cited.). From Solomon's time onward chariots were in use in both kingdoms. Zimri, who slew Elah, son of Baasha, king of Israel, was captain of half his chariots (<a href="/1_kings/16-9.htm">1 Kings 16:9</a>). It was when sitting in his chariot in disguise beside the driver that Ahab received his fatal wound at Ramoth-gilead (<a href="/1_kings/22-34.htm">1 Kings 22:34</a>). The floor of the royal chariot was a pool of blood, and "they washed the chariot by the pool of Samaria" (<a href="/1_kings/22-35.htm">1 Kings 22:35, 38</a>). It was in his war-chariot that his servants carried Josiah dead from the fatal field of Megiddo (<a href="/2_kings/23-30.htm">2 Kings 23:30</a>). The chief pieces of the Hebrew chariot were (1) the pole to which the two horses were yoked, (2) the axle-resting upon two wheels with six or eight spokes (<a href="/1_kings/7-33.htm">1 Kings 7:33</a>)-into which the pole was fixed, (3) a frame or body open behind, standing upon the axle and fitted by a leather band to the pole. The chariots of iron of which we read (<a href="/judges/4-3.htm">Judges 4:3</a>) were of wood strengthened or studded with iron. Like that of the Hittite, the Hebrew chariot probably carried three men, although in the chariot of Ahab (<a href="/1_kings/22-34.htm">1 Kings 22:34</a>) and in that of Jehu (<a href="/2_kings/9-24.htm">2 Kings 9:24 f</a>) we read of only two. 4. Chariots of the Assyrians: In the later days when the Assyrians overran the lands of the West, the Israelites had to face the chariots and the hosts of Sennacherib and of the kings (<a href="/2_kings/19-23.htm">2 Kings 19:23</a>). And they faced them with chariots of their own. An inscription of Shalmaneser II of Assyria tells how in the battle of Karkar (854 B.C.) Ahab of the land of Israel had put into the field 2,000 chariots and 10,000 soldiers. But the Assyrian chariotry was too numerous and powerful for Israel. The Assyrian chariot was larger and heavier than the Egyptian or the Hebrew: it had usually three and sometimes four occupants (Maspero, Life in Ancient Egypt and Assyria, 322). When we read in Nahum's prophecy of "chariots flashing with steel," "rushing to and fro in the broad ways" (<a href="/nahum/2-3.htm">Nahum 2:3, 4</a>), it is of the Assyrian chariots that we are to think being hastily got together for the defense of Nineveh. 5. Chariots of Chaldeans, Persians, Greeks: In early Babylonian inscriptions of the 3rd millennium before Christ there is evidence of the use of the war-chariots, and Nebuchadrezzar in his campaigns to the West had chariots as part of his victorious host (<a href="/jeremiah/47-3.htm">Jeremiah 47:3</a>). It was the Persians who first employed scythed chariots in war; and we find Antiochus Eupator in the Seleucid period equipping a Greek force against Judea which had 300 chariots armed with scythes (2 Maccabees 13:2). 6. In the New Testament: In the New Testament the chariot is only twice mentioned. Besides the chariot in which the Ethiopian eunuch was traveling when Philip the evangelist made up to him (<a href="/acts/8-28.htm">Acts 8:28, 29, 38</a>), there is only the mention of the din of war-chariots to which the onrush of locusts in Apocalyptic vision is compared (<a href="/revelation/9-9.htm">Revelation 9:9</a>). 7. Figurative Use: In the figurative language of Scripture, the chariot has a place. It is a tribute to the powerful influence of Elijah and Elisha when they are separately called "the chariots of Israel and the horsemen thereof" (<a href="/2_kings/2-12.htm">2 Kings 2:12</a>; <a href="/2_kings/13-14.htm">2 Kings 13:14</a>). The angelic hosts are declared to be God's chariots, twice ten thousand, thousands upon thousands (<a href="/psalm/68-17.htm">Psalm 68:17</a>). But chariots and horses themselves are a poor substitute for the might of God (<a href="/psalm/20-7.htm">Psalm 20:7</a>). God Himself is represented as riding upon His chariots of salvation for the defense of His people (<a href="/habakkuk/3-8.htm">Habakkuk 3:8</a>). In the Book of Zechariah, the four chariots with their horses of various colors have an apocalyptic significance (<a href="http://nasb.scripturetext.com/zechariah/6.htm">Zechariah 6</a>). In the worship of the host of heaven which prevailed in the later days of the kingdom of Judah, "the chariots of the sun" (see article) were symbols which led the people into gross idolatry and King Josiah burnt them with fire (<a href="/2_kings/23-11.htm">2 Kings 23:11</a>).
