The praiseworthy wife of Proverbs wears purple linens, no doubt spun and dyed by her own weary hands. In a gospel parable, the rich man who ignores starving Lazarus sports purple robes at his sumptuous table. As the dye became simpler to manufacture, it lost its exclusive dimension. Scarlet is a third color that appears in scripture, but with mixed esteem. A touch of scarlet is woven into priestly garments and sacred linens for ritual use.
The businesswoman Rahab, who assists Joshua in the conquest of Jericho, uses a scarlet cord as a signal. The curious blend of sacred and profane uses for this color reminds us that red, too, was a difficult color to produce and would have been distinctly uncommon. Anyone not wearing these colors was, presumably, clothed in the natural tones of the fibers they wove.
Silver and gold were in abundant use for ornaments then as now. Signet rings on the fingers of kings and the wealthy, nose rings for wives, bangles for women, and neck chains for men, were worn by any who could afford them. But finery was a choice, not a requirement. My question is: Where did she find room to wear the rest? Though Esther is described as naturally lovely, this fact only makes her a candidate for an arsenal of cosmetics and seven palace maids to assist in augmenting her look.
It takes 12 months of spa treatments to prepare Esther for her first night with the king. For both Judith and Esther, flashy attire is simply an exercise of feminine power in a cultural context that afforded them little else as leverage. Biblical women were constrained to demonstrate desirability, the ability to produce sons, or both.
Along with Judith and Esther, the Song of Songs is a third biblical book that pays a great deal of attention to physical appearance.
To sum up: the reports say that he blessings and peace of Allah be upon him used to wear whatever garments were readily available and were customary among his people.
So he did not reject that which was available, he did not go to great lengths to obtain that which was not available, he did not wear anything that made him stand out from other people, and he did not restrict himself to wearing only one type of clothing.
