The Bible and the colors of the rainbow
We cannot talk about the significance of colors of the rainbow without mentioning the Bible. It is believed that “rainbow is a sign from the Almighty that we are not forgotten”. It is mentioned in the story of Noah’s Ark; after God appeared before Noah following the flood, there was a beautiful rainbow in the sky signifying his Glory and Power as well as His Covenant.
In the Bible, Rainbow is mentioned in The Genesis, The Revelation and also Book of Ezekiel.
- In Genesis, it is described as a sign of God’s Mercy as well as the pact/covenant He made with Noah that such a flood would not be sent again.
- In Ezekiel 1:26-28, colors of the rainbow are compared to the glory of God while in Revelation; Apostle John compares the rainbow colors to the glory or power of God.
Noah teaches Mankind the Seven Basic rules to adhere to conforming to the Seven Colors of The Rainbow:
- Thou shall not worship Idols
- Thou shall not Blaspheme
- Thou shall not murder
- Thou shall not have immoral relationships
- Thou shall not steal
- Thou shall Respect all Living Creatures
- Thou Shall Set up Courts of Law
These are termed as Noahide Laws and the seven colors of the rainbow remind us of our obligation to them.
Angel Colors and colors of the rainbow
Another important term related to the colors of the rainbow is Angel Colors. Devout Christians use these to focus on their Prayers to the Lord. Like the seven rainbow colors, there are seven Angel colors. Some gifted people with ‘sight’ do not just see the refracted light in the rainbow colors but another metaphysical system which they believe to be Angels sent to Earth to guide us. These are actually similar to the concept of Chakra and Aura colors, which we have discussed before.
The Seven Angel colors include:
- Blue- Angel Michael (the leader of all angels). Also denotes Spirituality
- Yellow- Angel Jophiel (Thoughts/Wisdom)
- Pink- Angel Chamuel- ( relationships)
- White- Angel Gabriel ( revelation)
- Green- Angel Raphael (healing)
- Red- Angel Uriel ( wisdom/energy)
- Purple- Angel Zadkeil (angel of Mercy).
