It is often mentioned in the context of sacred garments, tabernacle furnishings, and other religious artifacts, reflecting its importance in the worship and religious practices of the Israelites.<br><br><b>Biblical References and Symbolism</b><br><br>1. <b>Tabernacle and Priestly Garments</b>: Blue is prominently featured in the construction of the Tabernacle and the garments of the priests. In <a href="/exodus/25-4.htm">Exodus 25:4</a>, God instructs Moses to collect materials for the Tabernacle, including "blue, purple, and scarlet yarn." These colors are used in the curtains, the veil, and the ephod of the high priest, symbolizing the majesty and holiness of God. <a href="/exodus/28-31.htm">Exodus 28:31-33</a> describes the robe of the ephod, which is to be made entirely of blue cloth, with pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn on its hem.<br><br>2. <b>The Tassels on Garments</b>: In <a href="/numbers/15-38.htm">Numbers 15:38-39</a>, the Israelites are commanded to make tassels on the corners of their garments with a blue cord. This blue thread serves as a visual reminder to follow God's commandments: "Speak to the Israelites and tell them that throughout the generations to come, they are to make tassels for the corners of their garments, with a blue cord on each tassel. You will have these tassels to look at so that you will remember all the commands of the LORD, that you may obey them and not prostitute yourselves by chasing after the lusts of your own hearts and eyes."<br><br>3. <b>Symbol of Heaven and Divine Revelation</b>: The color blue is often associated with the sky and the heavens, symbolizing divine revelation and the presence of God. In <a href="/ezekiel/1-26.htm">Ezekiel 1:26</a>, the prophet describes a vision of God's throne, which appears as "a sapphire stone," a precious blue gem, emphasizing the heavenly and majestic nature of God's presence.<br><br>4. <b>Royalty and Wealth</b>: Blue is also a color of royalty and wealth, as seen in the description of the wealth of the city of Tyre in <a href="/ezekiel/27-7.htm">Ezekiel 27:7</a>: "Fine embroidered linen from Egypt was your sail, serving as your banner; blue and purple from the coasts of Elishah was your awning." This association with luxury and nobility underscores the value and significance of blue in ancient cultures.<br><br><b>Cultural and Theological Implications</b><br><br>The use of blue in the Bible reflects its cultural and theological significance in ancient Israel. As a color that represents both the divine and the royal, blue serves as a reminder of God's sovereignty and holiness. It is a color that calls the faithful to remember their covenant with God and to live in obedience to His commandments. The recurring presence of blue in sacred contexts highlights its role as a symbol of purity, truth, and the eternal nature of God's kingdom.<a name="amt" id="amt"></a><div class="vheading2">ATS Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Blue</span><p>See <a href="../p/purple.htm">PURPLE</a>. </p><a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>Generally associated with purple (<a href="/exodus/25-4.htm">Exodus 25:4</a>; <a href="/exodus/26-1.htm">26:1</a>, 31, 36, etc.).
