He seems to have the colors confused of the robe Jesus (piss be upon him) wore:
Matthew 27:28
28And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
John 19:2
2And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe
Just so we are clear, THIS is scarlet and THIS is purple.
Well? Can anyone answer this?

God most certainly is not colorblind and in fact he went to great lengths to discuss and even instruct the adorning of tents with beauty and color and decor.
Just read the Book of Esther and you will realize his passion and also panache for such things.
He also clearly liked colors in the red and purple color palates (again evident in Esther) and as you know, color strikes a different tone and highlight in certain times of day.
That is why I see no issue with it being written as a scarlet or purple robe as given the time of day, the same color could well take on a different hue.
