Proverbs 31:21

She is not afraid of the snow (winter and cold),
because her whole family is dressed in red [precious clothes that were also warm].
[The twelfth Hebrew letter is: ל – Lamed. The character depicts a shepherd's crook or ox whip. It often describes authority, or something that motivates and causes something to happen. The word "not" in the compound word "She is not afraid" begins with this letter and reinforces that she is not afraid of the future; she is prepared to face winter. The Greek translation translates red as "double layers." Red fabrics were expensive (2 Sam. 1:24; Isa. 1:18; Jer. 4:30). She has prepared clothes that are both expensive and warm. In a poetic text, the color red can also symbolize warmth, glow, and fire, in contrast to white snow.]
