However, the concept of color and its symbolic meanings can be found in various Greek terms used in the New Testament, such as πυρρός (pyrros, Strong's Greek 4450), which means "fiery red" and is used in Revelation to describe the color of horses in apocalyptic visions. Usage: The word שָׂרֻק (saruk) is used in the context of describing color, particularly in reference to the color of a horse. It appears in the Hebrew Bible to denote a specific hue that is bright and reddish. Context: The Hebrew term שָׂרֻק (saruk) is found in the context of describing the color of horses, specifically in the prophetic visions of Zechariah. In Zechariah 1:8, the prophet describes a vision of a man riding a red horse, standing among the myrtle trees. The term is used to convey the vividness and distinctiveness of the horse's color, which is significant in the symbolic imagery of the vision. The color red, or bay, in biblical symbolism, often represents war, bloodshed, or divine judgment, adding a layer of meaning to the prophetic message. The use of שָׂרֻק (saruk) in this context highlights the importance of color in conveying theological and eschatological themes within the biblical narrative.
