Only once applied to a house: 'painted with vermilion.' Jeremiah 22:14 . Jezebel 'painted her eyes,' as 2 Kings 9:30 should read. Israel is compared to a lewd woman who painted her eyes. Ezekiel 23:40 . "Thou rentest thy face with painting" in Jeremiah 4:30 is 'enlarging the eyes.' The eyelids and eyebrows were painted with antimony or some other pigment, which made the eyes look larger.
