Gerbera Daisy
Three Hebrew words are so translated.
1. karmil, a color prepared from an insect which inhabits a species of oak: it is crimson or deep scarlet (2 Chron. 2:7,14; 2 Chron. 3:14).
2. shani, the word commonly translated “scarlet” (Jer. 4:30).
3. tola, name of a worm, thought to be a dye of a bluish tint. This word occurs in the memorable passage in Isaiah’s prophecy, that though Israel’s sins should be red like crimson, they should be as wool (Isa. 1:18). The same word is translated scarlet in Lamentations 4:5.
