Snow
Wilson's Dictionary of Bible Types
2 Samuel 23:20 (c) The snow would make the sides of the pit very slippery and dangerous. This great servant of David cared nothing about the hazards to his own life. This was characteristic of him as he fought for David.
Job 9:30 (c) The finest efforts of men and the best means of improvement by man are not sufficient to make and keep any person clean in GOD's sight.
Isaiah 1:18 (a) By this we see the beautiful, stainless character of the one who is cleansed by GOD through the Blood of JESUS CHRIST, His Son.
Isaiah 55:10 (a) There is sometimes a delay in the entrance of GOD's Word into the heart. Rain falls and does its good work immediately. Snow falls and may remain on the ground quite a long time before it soaks in. So, one may hear a sermon and some parts of it will bless the person immediately, as the rain. Other parts of the message will remain in the heart and mind dormant for years. Then when the proper conditions arise, and the right circumstances exist, the dormant message becomes a living message to the heart.
Revelation 1:14 (c) The white hair of our blessed Lord indicates that He is the Ancient of Days, filled with wisdom, knowledge, understanding and experience. It is in contrast to the black hair described in the Song of Solomon 5:11.
