Lamentations 4:7
<< Lamentations 4:7 >>
Her consecrated ones were purer than snow, They were whiter than milk; They were more ruddy in body than corals, Their polishing was like lapis lazuli. (NASB ©1995)

Exodus 24:10 and they saw the God of Israel; and under His feet there appeared to be a pavement of sapphire, as clear as the sky itself.

Job 28:16 "It cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir, In precious onyx, or sapphire.

Psalm 51:7 Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. (NASB ©1995)


Her Nazarites were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was of sapphire:

Nazarites Nu 6:2 Jud 13:5,7 16:17 Am 2:11,12 Lu 1:15

purer 1Sa 16:12 Ps 51:7 144:12 So 5:10 Da 1:15

their polishing. Gizrathom, rendered by Dr. Blayney, 'their veining,' from gazar, to divide, intersect, as the blue veins do the surface of the body. This is approved by Dr. A. Clarke, who remarks, 'Milk will most certainly well apply to the whiteness of the skin; the beautiful ruby to the ruddiness of the flesh; and the sapphire, in its clear, transcendent purple, to the veins in a fine complexion.'
