I shared last time about the most famous story of purple in the Bible, that of Lydia (the seller of purple), but there are many other mentions of purple in God’s Word:
“Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them.” Exodus 26:1
“And thou shalt make a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen of cunning work: with cherubims shall it be made:.” Exodus 26:31

“ And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,” Mark 15:17
“And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.” Mark 15:20
“ There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:” Luke 16:19
“There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:” Luke 16:19
“And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:” Revelation 17:4
“And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!” Revelation 18:16
Do you know any others?
Have a GRAPE Day!
