and those still shorter blue ,

[

(US "color ") Colours are usually represented as
{RGB } triples in a {digital } {image } because this corresponds
most closely to the electronic signals needed to drive a
{CRT }. Several equivalent systems ("{colour models }") exist ,
e .g . {HSB }. A colour {image } may be stored as three separate
images , one for each of red , green , and blue , or each {pixel }
may encode the colour using separate {bit -fields } for each
colour component , or each pixel may store a logical colour
number which is looked up in a hardware {colour palette } to
find the colour to display .
Printers may use the {CMYK } or {Pantone } representations of
colours as well as RGB .
(1999 -08 -02 )Colour The subject of colours holds an important place in the Scriptures .
White occurs as the translation of various Hebrew words .
It is applied to milk (

A different term ,
meaning "
dazzling ,"
is applied to the countenance (

10 ).
This colour was an emblem of purity and innocence (
Mark 16 :
5 ;
John 20 :
12 ;
Rev .
19 :
8 ,
14 ),
of joy (
Eccl .
9 :

and breeches of the priests (

and the dress of the high priest on the day of Atonement (

16 :

were white .
Black ,
applied to the hair (
Lev .
13 :
31 ;
Cant .
5 :
11 ),
the complexion (
Cant .
1 :
5 ),
and to horses (
Zech .
6 :
2 ,

in Gen .

black ")
means properly "
scorched ",

the colour produced by the influence of the sun '

to a clouded sky (
1 Kings 18 :
45 ),
to night (
Micah 3 :
6 ;
Jer .
4 :
28 ),
and to a brook rendered turbid by melted snow (
Job 6 :
16 ).
It is used as symbolical of evil in Zech .
6 :
2 ,
6 and Rev .
6 :
5 .
It was the emblem of mourning ,
affliction ,
calamity (
Jer .
14 :
2 ;
Lam .
4 :

5 :
10 ).
Red ,
applied to blood (

Purple ,
a colour obtained from the secretion of a species of shell -
fish (
the Murex trunculus )
which was found in the Mediterranean ,
and particularly on the coasts of Phoenicia and Asia Minor .
The colouring matter in each separate shell -
fish amounted to only a single drop ,
and hence the great value of this dye .
Robes of this colour were worn by kings (
Judg .
8 :
26 )
and high officers (
Esther 8 :
15 ).
They were also worn by the wealthy and luxurious (
Jer .
10 :
9 ;

27 :
7 ;
Luke 16 :
19 ;
Rev .
17 :

7 ,
16 ,

fish ,
the chelzon of the Hebrews ,
and the Helix ianthina of modern naturalists .
The tint was emblematic of the sky ,
the deep dark hue of the Eastern sky .
This colour was used in the same way as purple .

In Isa .
1 :
18 a Hebrew word is used which denotes the worm or grub whence this dye was procured .
In Gen .
38 :
28 ,
30 ,
the word so rendered means "
to shine ,"
and expresses the brilliancy of the colour .
The small parasitic insects from which this dye was obtained somewhat resembled the cochineal which is found in Eastern countries .
It is called by naturalists Coccus ilics .
The dye was procured from the female grub alone .
The only natural object to which this colour is applied in Scripture is the lips ,
which are likened to a scarlet thread (
Cant .
4 :
3 ).
Scarlet robes were worn by the rich and luxurious (
2 Sam .
1 :
24 ;
Prov .
31 :
21 ;
Jer .
4 :
30 .
Rev .
17 :
4 ).
It was also the hue of the warrior '
s dress (
Nah .
2 :
3 ;
Isa .
9 :
5 ).
The Phoenicians excelled in the art of dyeing this colour (
2 Chr .
2 :
7 ).
These four colours --
white ,
purple ,
blue ,
and scarlet --
were used in the textures of the tabernacle curtains (
Ex .
26 :
1 ,
31 ,
36 ),
and also in the high priest '
s ephod ,
girdle ,
and breastplate (
Ex .
28 :
5 ,
6 ,
8 ,
15 ).
Scarlet thread is mentioned in connection with the rites of cleansing the leper (
Lev .
14 :
4 ,
6 ,
51 )
and of burning the red heifer (
Num .
19 :
6 ).
It was a crimson thread that Rahab was to bind on her window as a sign that she was to be saved alive (
Josh .
2 :
18 ;
6 :
25 )
when the city of Jericho was taken .
Vermilion ,
the red sulphuret of mercury ,
or cinnabar ;
