Probably ruddy - that's the literal meaning of the Hebrew 'dm

Is that in the Bible ? What chapter and verse ?

Actually, Adam is derived from Adamah, which is the Hebrew word for dry dirt or dust. Adam was taken from Adamah. God made man from dust and to dust he shall return. I don't place any importance on the idea that ‘dm denotes that Adam had a ruddy complexion.
