| 1 | Strong's Number: g2847 | Greek: kokkinos |
Scarlet:
is derived from kokkos, used of the "berries" (clusters of the eggs of an insect) collected from the ilex coccifera; the color, however, is obtained from the cochineal insect, which attaches itself to the leaves and twigs of the coccifera oak; another species is raised on the leaves of the cactus ficus. The Arabic name for this insect is qirmiz, whence the word "crimson." It is used
(a) of "scarlet" wool, Hbr 9:19; cp., in connection with the cleansing of a leper, Lev 14:4, 6, "scarlet;" with the offering of the red heifer, Num 19:6;
(b) of the robe put on Christ by the soldiers, Mat 27:28;
(c) of the "beast" seen in symbolic vision in Rev 17:3, "scarlet-colored;"
(d) of the clothing of the "woman" as seen sitting on the "beast," Rev 17:4;
(e) of part of the merchandise of Babylon, Rev 18:12;
(f) figuratively, of the glory of the city itself, Rev 18:16; the neuter is used in the last three instances.
