Tola. The names Tola and Pua are both those of dyes. “Tola” was the cochineal insect from which scarlet dye is obtained, and “Pua,” a species of madder, an herbaceous climbing plant with yellow flowers from which a dye was made. The family of Tola was most prolific, numbering 22,600 men in the time of David (1 Chron. 7:2).
