Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
A-1 Adjective Strong's Number: g4450 Greek: purrhos

Red:

denotes "fire-colored" (pur, "fire"), hence, "fiery red," Rev 6:4; 12:3, in the latter passage said of the Dragon, indicative of the cruelty of the Devil.

A-2 Adjective Strong's Number: g2063 Greek: eruthros

Red:

denotes "red" (the ordinary color); the root rudh--, is seen, e.g., in the Latin rufus, Eng., "ruby," "ruddy," "rust," etc. It is applied to the Red Sea, Act 7:36; Hbr 11:29. The origin of the name is uncertain; it has been regarded as due, e.g., to the color of the corals which cover the Red Sea bed or line its shores, or to the tinge of the mountains which border it, or to the light of the sky upon its waters.

B-1 Verb Strong's Number: g4449 Greek: purrhazo

Red:

"to be fiery red" (akin to A, No. 1), is used of the sky, Mat 16:2, 3. In the Sept., purrhizo, Lev 13:19, 42, 43, 49; 14:37.
