| Resumo: | Colour is used throughout the NT, although sparingly, with different functions and in conjunction with specific situations.

On the other hand, the author of the Apocalypse uses the colour in its literal sense to describe a particular object or character. In view of the fact that the book was meant to be read aloud, his repetition of colour adjectives stresses the effectiveness and importance of aural effect as a conveyor of meaning. |
