  • Smitten With Joy (children's palette competition)

    Recently some drawings that would be very beneficial for the little ones were presented by Mrs. Dewitt.
    Here is a palette of hues sampled from a major manufacturer of artists pencils/crayons (products from several of their ranges were included to give a good selection of shades, all of which may be purchased individually and combined into a lovely set for children).
    Except for the last two, which are Silver and Gold.
    The gold will be supplied as gold leaf (from the family mine); silver leaf will also be locally sourced.
    As it is rather time consuming to find Bible references for each shade of red in the set, a competition to name them with Bible references hyperlinked seemed a reasonable option, and children would be able to look for suitable verses, too!
    Here are a couple of examples:
    1.. SHADE ref. 5, vii - Scab This is a good example because the Bible verse contains the words smite and scab.

    2.. SHADE ref. 2, i - Scarlet (this one is actually called "Scarlet Lake" by the manufacturer) although the Bible verse contains the word scarlet, it does not contain the word smite, smote, smitten etc. Also, scarlet is not an affliction as such. cf. Revelation 17:4

    3.. SHADE ref. 1, i - ??? The manufacturer’s name for this pigment is "Flesh Pink" and the Bible verse does contain the word flesh, but there is no smiting, no entrails, no abomination. Flesh could be improved on, as a name for this hue.

    Although I normally use King James Version ©1611, the verses linked (above) are from the King James Version ©1769 as they may be more familiar to children. There is probably a better solution to the hypertext, but I'll just post this now and see how the competition progresses. Any suggestions or improvements will be welcome.

    Miss Mitza,

    I am certainly impressed with all your hard work.!

    I also love the fact you have so many shades and hues of REDS, which of course are very important for ALL Biblical Coloring -In pages.

    I will be interested to see what names people come up with.

    Well done indeed!

    Sister Phebe.




    There's Jesus here,
    Just see what He offers me....
    Down here my sins forgiven,
    Up there a home in heaven
    Praise God, That's the way for me!!

      Sisters, 7, vi sure looks like advanced leprosy to me.
      Bible boring? Nonsense!
      Try Bible in a Year with Brother V, or join Shirlee and the kids as they discuss Real Bible Stories!
      You can't be a Christian if you don't know God's Word!

        Why so much pink?
        PROOF: Atheists are too stupid to understand the Bible!

        Proverbs 13:24(KJV): "He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes."

        Galatians 4:16 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?

          Yes, there were quite a large number of different reds to choose from. The manufacturer’s charts covered several types of crayon/penci, each type with its own palette. I have 1 or 2, which I could compare with the RGB image on a computer screen, but am not certain how accurate the representation is overall. The ones I could compare were pretty good, but different qualities of paper made quite a difference, too.

          Leviticus 13 is a great chapter for leprosy, and an important illustration of how much God loves us! Children today rarely see leprosy, and very little is taught about it at school. Your comment suggests that 7vi could be a little kit of one or two mildly corrosive silver powders that would take on a mottled appearance when exposed to light, and degrade the paper over time - just like real leprosy! I’ve just checked with our senior chemist, and am assured that there are suitable silver salts.
          Numbers 12 and II Chronicles 26 contain two delightful stories of INSTANT LEPROSY - perfect bedtime reading for the little ones after completing one of Mrs. Dewitt’s pictures.

          The screen does not show all the reds exactly - only 2vii (spectrum red) is pure red - I just checked it - and even 3iv (a blood red) is not very bloody; I just checked that one too, and it is a slightly diluted dark red. When anything is added to plain red, it seems to look a bit “pink” against a pure red on the screen - but even very dark plain red (5vii is pure, but very dark, red) comes out on the screen as brownish.

          I'll keep a list of all suggestions and update occasionally with the Biblical names.

                  Re: Smitten With Joy (children's palette competition)

                  Row 1, column ii looks like a cadaver. No reference to Cadaver in the KJV, but plenty of bodies:

                  Deuteronomy 21:23
                  His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is accursed of God
                  ) that thy land be not defiled, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
                  He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore. 2 Samuel 22:51
                  God, Guns and BBQ make AMERICA great!

                    1 ii is yours, Mr. HaveMercy. Nahum 3:3 offers us corpse, or carcass - so the choice is yours

                    A body could be dead or alive, and might confuse children. Cadaver is the best, but I haven't seen a reference to cadavers in KJV. That doesn't mean there isn't one, but I can't find one. I'll enter your choice in the palette, just let me know: it is in your hands whatever entry you choose is fine with me.

                        Corpse is very good, I didn't think of that term.
