Color Symbolism and Color Meaning in The Bible

Bible Colors - Symbolism in Scripture, Symbolic Color Use and Occurrence in the Christian Bible, Hebrew Greek

This study references only those verses in which the color in question is consistently translated among the Bible versions offered on this site, therefore they are not exhaustive. Specifically, there are many color references in the King James Version that aren't in other translations, these have been omitted (with some exception). Also, if a verse is ambiguous in its color symbolism or the color is used in the exact same way in another passage then that verse may be left out. In the left column under each color name are the transliterated Hebrew and Greek words linked to their Strong's definition; courtesy of StudyLight.org. The colors are arranged alphabetically and each color is seperated into 1-4 categories which are explained below:

  - Direct Meaning demonstrates the plain use of the color in a passage.
  - Opposite Meaning describes the color use when it contradicts the Direct Meaning.
  - Color Symbolism derives a symbolic meaning from the color's use throughout Scripture.
  - Associated Symbols define symbolic meanings of objects in the same verse as the color.

Note on verse references: The actual verses were too numerous to include here. As a suggestion to save you the work of looking up the referenced verses by hand, you can copy the full verse list for any single bulleted entry and paste it into the 'Passage Lookup' field at Bible Gateway to retrieve them in a wide choice of translations.

The bands that have, blak(sin) red(blood) white(forgiven) green(???)and yello-gold(Streets) in them. what dose the green stand for and am i leaving a color out ???????

RE: Colors

by Anonymous - 5/22/07 7:59 AM
Those symbolize our life before and after Christ...

Black- Before being saved, we are covered with sin
Red- The blood of Christ which covers us
White- Because of Jesus' blood, we are cleansed pure as snow
Blue- Symbolizes baptism
Gold- God's streets are paved with gold
Green- Symbolizes spiritual growth

There's actually a song that goes with it... it's called the Wordless Book or something like that. It goes:

♫ My heart was dark with sin, until the Savior came in. His precious blood I know, had washed me white as snow. And when in Heaven I'm told, I'll walk the streets of gold... To grow more like Him each day, I'll read my Bible and pray. ♫

green and blue

by h'lena - 4/05/08 3:48 AM
I've been studying the menorah and have found that the green(emerald) around the thrown (which is the center)as a rainbow that yahshua(j-us) sits stands for the shamash candle which he is.

Also Blue also reprsents the covenant that Yah (G-d) has with us. For us to always remember the laws, commandments, the covenant.

hi again, I use the orangey/yellowey flags in church during worship (At ehe appropriate time of coarse) as a symbol of the Holy spirit. He is fire. Acts 2:3-4. They saw what seemed to be tongues fo fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in tongues as the Spirit enabled them.
Ask the Holy Spirit to give you the wisdom on what the colours mean. I have received revelation from Holy Spirit at divine times according to what & where the Holy Spirit was moving during the different seasons in our church.

Purple is for the crowns we'll wear! When you believe in Jesus, you are part of God's royal family. We are a royal priesthood. He has promised his children a crown and a special room in his mansion in Heaven for eternity!

RE: doubting thomas

by vanesa Ab canada - 4/04/08 1:38 AM
Taken from The Fruit of the Spirit Bible a one year study for clutivating a fruitful life, Zondervan (Publisher). Page 1280. Cyncism is the greatest destroyer of peace! Cynicism is doubt, growing fangs. Thomas was not present when Jesus firt appeared to the apotles, What a pity, they were overjoyed. John 20:20. The apostles excitement at having seen the Lord alive only added more shadows to Thomas"s dark mood. (v25)..unless I see... I will not believeit. So the other disciples lived in joy, their joy gave them peace. But no peace for Thomas, He elected to be a man at war. A week later Jesus was there. "Hello there, Thomas." "Ta da, it's me Jesus.!" v27 reach out your hand and... believe... Then came the integrity- and joy! Dark moods fled before the sunlight. Thomas was healed, and peace overtook him. When cynicism is gone, peace may hold sway in our lives. Let the pece of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, and hymns and spirityal songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. Colossians 3:15-16. Cynicism destroys peace and sets discord into our music. Peace clears the dull floor fo our routines and makes a dancing place for joy.

For rainbow see Genesis 9:8-17. A rainbow according to scripture is God's promise or covenant never to flood the earth with such destruction as to cut off all flesh anymore by the waters of a flood. A rainbow is the visible sign to all that He will keep His promises.

Because the color orange isn't mentioned in the Bible we have to look to the symbols that have its color to derive a meaning. In this case I will point you to fire. These were taken from the color amber above.

fire - God's presence (Hebrews 12:29, Exodus 3:2), God's judgment (Genesis 19:24, II Kings 1:10-14, Isaiah 66:15, II Thessalonians 1:7-8)

You can also look at vermillion above which is close to orange but has no positive meaning.

I bought a pretty blowse from a boutique that looked a bit like the one I painted myself in a couple of months before and I was wondering what the meaning of pink was because I felt that it was significant as in the picture I painted the Lord showed me to put really cool words around myself, like LOVE, hope, faith, Purity, Salvation, Rest, Strength, etc. etc, all in different colours. Anyway, also I had a prophesy that the Lord was going to restore all my relationships and over the last year the Lord has been working massively on my heart. Also, recently someone said that I was childlike and that God liked it. I feel convinced that this is a specific colour that God chose for this season in my life. Thanks for all your comments.

I had a dream that was the most beautiful dream I have ever had.
I drempt that I was in this large house and and I wanted to live
in this house. But someone had left it unkept and I knew I had
alot of cleaning to do. Then I felt a shadow fall over me.
I could see from the corner of my eye that it was a man standing
behind me. When I saw this man I thought I HOPE he ALLOWS me
to have this house. So I knelt down and started scrubbing the floor
and crying. Then He lifted me up and brought me to the window.
There were four windows that went from the celling to the floor
The last window was opened and had a sheer whiteish curtian
flowing in the wind. When I looked out I saw the greenest pasture
I have ever seen in my life and trees of the most beautiful kind.
In the yard was a bed and upon that bed was a baby bed. The linens
on the beds match and were the same color and style. They were
white with little pink flowers. ( God has come to show me the
meaning of this dream but I never knew what the pink flowers ment)
I typed in the browser is pink mentioned in the bible and found
this web site............Does anyone know the real meaning
of the color pink? Thank you.

RE: pink

by Nettie--Lake Charles, LA - 3/02/08 11:06 AM
The color pink is obtained by mixing red and white. Since the color red signifies the BLOOD that was shed by JESUS and our righteousness and sanctification given to us by JESUS, and the color white designates purity and cleansing that identifies the Church without spot or wrinkle that JESUS will return for. Therefore, the color pink represents the Return of JESUS for HIS Bride!

the Bible says not to adorn yourself with outward things "plaiting of the hair, etc" but to adorn your inward being. Doing things to beautify the outward being aren't sin unless you spend more time on those than on your inward being. Remember what you spend the most time and effort on is what you worship.

Remember the Bible says, where there is no law, sin is not imputed. So if God DOES NOT condem it, please DO NOT allow man to condem you. All you have to do is follow God's law. The Bible says for us to prove ALL things and that which cannot be proven as sin, is NOT sin. Amen

As a matter of fact I died my hair for many reasons, but one was because I as a blonde was being discriminated against. Probably by the same self-righteous people who would condemn me for doing so, and before you judge, make sure you judge righteously. Romans 16 says to mark those which cause devisions, and I do not see what would be so dividing and wrong about making myself feel better about the way I look.

Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised! So is dying your hair wrong? by no means! The color of your hair does not change God's plan in your life. When Perfection comes the imperfect dissapeares...and you will never have to worry about dying your hair again, as long as God has given you the avtivity of your limbs and the funds to purchase a box of Loreal go for it, but Give God the praise and honor him...a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. All the outside stuff will eventually wither away, but interanlly you are being renewed daily.

I just posted the above remarks and would like to add that I`m far from "perfect", but I do believe that the Lord has a standard. Take for example all these women running around half naked in this day and age. Does this only bother me? Isn`t there something in the bible talking about "broad is the path to destruction? Doesn`t it say to rise up before the hoary head? Sounds like having grey hair back then was an honor. I think we worship youth a bit much in our current culture. But if you came in to my church with dyed hair we would treat you good. But the message would come from our pulpit sooner or later because our ministers feel they are accountable to the Lord. I do not feel under bondage because I know "narrow is the path..." God be with you.

Just a reminder, our flesh will not go to Heaven. It is not what is reborn. Only the Spirit man in us. Just ask the Lord what He thinks and honor it. He sees your heart wanting to honor Him. I had asked a close friend about something and she gave me a good answer, but I had yet to ask the Lord about the subject. It just so happened that when I asked the Lord He gave me a different answer, so I honor what the Lord put on my heart. Be blessed!

This is so typical of the enemy!! If he can distract us by quibbling amongst ourselves and focusing on tiny things, he has won. Even to the point of quibbling over how someone wrote a scripture. We all use different Bibles. NIV,KJV,NKJV,NAS,The Message, and so on.
Look, dying your hair doesn't make you a Christian. It is your heart and how you follow the Lord. If you feel for you that dying your hair is a sin, then you need to work that one out between you and Jesus. But, telling other people, that isn't good, because you are putting someone else under a bondage that doesn't belong to us as Christians. We don't need that kind of yuck! We all love to look our best to the Lord and to the people around us. There is nothing wrong with that. We need to remember we serve a Lord that looks at our hearts. He is the one that judges and not us. Now, we can look at the fruit of each other, but if it isn't covered by grace and mercy ans all we are going to see is fault. We will look no different to the unbelievers if we keep this up.
Dye your hair girl and get some freedom in your life. Jesus loves you and so do we as brothers and sisters in Christ.
And the rest of need to speak to each other the way we would want to be spoken too. Without condemnation, being spoken to in a harsh manor, and judging right back. The only way someone can be free of judging is love and the enemy can't hold on to unity in the body, covering one another in prayer, and loving each other. You all know this!! It is in the Bible and we are to do it the way we have been instructed to do it!!
LOVE-JOY-PEACE-PATIENCE-KINDNESS-GOODNESS-FAITHFULNESS-GENTLENESS-SELF-CONTROL- and out of that comes mercy and grace.
I hope this helps

The only thing I see wrong with dying your hair is from a health point of view. The toxic chemicals must have an effect on the body. The Bible calls the body the temple of God and 1 Corinthians 3:17 reads "If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy: for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. Maybe try something that is natural like henna.

RE: Full circle rainbow

The rainbow consists of 3 colors or prisms of light; red, green, and blue. It has a mirror image rainbow always found above it (blue, green red) with darker sky or white light(all the colors mixed) in the middle. Basically, it is a chiasm (hebrew style of poetry) in picture form. In a chiasm, you have points made with a center point and then the same points in reverse order. For example(A B C D C B A)with D as the middle point or main point. The rainbow red, green, blue, white light, blue, green, red is then a chism. The colors red(blood) green(new life) blue(water)create a message: through the water and the blood there comes new life. The center of the rainbow is white light which is pure light representing Jesus. So basically, the rainbow colors mean salvation, Jesus, salvation. He gives a witness of himself in everything. Next time you see a rainbow, look above it and you will see the sky is darker and above that you can find the faint but second rainbow. All rainbows are round (He is an eternal round)but from man's viewpoint, you only see in part (we only see part of the rainbow due to the horizon). May you blessed each time you see a rainbow.

Pink has been really symbolic in my life. I have asked the Lord this same question. Pink, in my experience, symbolizes emotions, romantic love, sweet love, tenderness. It is also the color of God's embrace. I know this last one from experience.

As you grow in your relationship with the Lord, you will probably develop your own symbolic language with him. I would encourage you to ask him what he wants to show you! Chances are you'll get more revelation about the color pink in your own life.

Hi: Your question made me curious - I have been researching some colors myself. I believe one answer can be found in Habakkuk 2:4

Hab 2:4 - "Behold, as for the proud one, His soul is not right within him; But the righteous will live by his faith.

If the righteous live by faith - then the color of faith could be white (the color of righteousness)...in further study found at www.joyshoppe.com/moreinfo/colors.htm,
white contains all colors and is the color of God. "Overcomer, triumph and Bride" are all listed with many Biblical references. Take a peek it may help you.

As I searched scripture, I found that faith was referenced with many different color symbolisms...therefore, I believe that our measure of faith is truly based on our experience through all the various circumstances that we encounter and overcome - blended all together, as we live by faith, we get whiter (more righteous, pure, filled with the LIGHT).

Just a thought.... blessings

Orange is not mentioned in the Bible, so there is not a direct Biblical meaning for the color. We can, however, gain some insights into the impact orange has by how it is used in our society and how people react to the color. Some descriptive words for orange would be vibrant, urgent, bold. The American Standards Association has adopted orange as the color for warning of severe hazards or danger. It is used in factories, machine shops, and roadways to warn of danger. When I think of orange I think of warning, danger!

The color Orange has come to my attention a lot in the past few weeks.
Thanks

I am looking for some Biblical reference that ties orange (or orange/red) to the meaning of praise and victory - I have heard it defined this way but have no Biblical perspective on it. Thanks for the help... you can email me at myvoiceis4him@aol.com - Blessings
