“And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.”
In appearance the locusts were like horses equipped for battle; on their heads were what looked like crowns of gold; their faces were like human faces — the locusts combine equine form (readied for war) with human visage (intellect, malice) and golden crowns (false majesty), suggesting demonic intelligence and ambition. The hybrid nature emphasizes their supernatural and hostile character.
