How to read this entry

Evidence grades apply to individual claims, not to the headword as a whole. Strong biblical identification is kept separate from plausible or traditional interpretations, and unsupported proposals remain visible as negative evidence rather than being silently removed.

See the evidence-grade guide.

Proposed crimson = suffering or sacrifice code

The inherited wording adds suffering and sacrifice to the explicit Isaiah sin-color comparison.

Context control: Retain frozen Isaiah 1 sin-comparison claim while rejecting unsupported extensions.

Scripture does not establish crimson as a fixed symbol of suffering or sacrifice; those extensions must not be added to the explicit Isaiah 1 sin-color comparison without separate textual warrant.
