A Color –
A connection with history and prophecy. The translators didn’t know the meaning of numbers and colors so they were forced to use the literal sense of these words. With many of the other words they were able to translate the meaning and that is why we have so many different versions of the bible. We can’t understand any of it until it is revealed to us and when it is we will know that the end is near. And that’s the truth.
