Easton's Bible Dictionary

Hebrews 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 (2 Chronicles 12:3). (see HORSE.)

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary

1. (n.) A rider on horseback; one skilled in the management of horses; a mounted man.

2. (n.) A mounted soldier; a cavalryman.

3. (n.) A land crab of the genus Ocypoda, living on the coast of Brazil and the West Indies, noted for running very swiftly.

4. (n.) A West Indian fish of the genus Eques, as the light-horseman (E. lanceolatus).
