Psalm 60:4 (a) Evidently this is the confession which a Christian makes; it is the testimony which he bears to the truth of GOD and to his faith in his Lord. (See also Psalm 20:5).
Song of Solomon 2:4 (c) This banner represents the leadership of the Lord in the lives of His people. Under His guidance they march along firmly convinced and fully persuaded that everything that happens to them comes from the loving heart of their Lord.
Song of Solomon 6:4 (c) In a war where the army is composed of many allies, each nation carries its own banner, thus displaying the great resources behind the forces. In this passage the banner indicates the many divisions of GOD's gracious provision for his own. There is the banner of His power and also of His love, and also of His sufficiency, and also of His grace.
Isaiah 13:2 (a) Probably this banner indicates that Babylon must be exposed and advertised in her true colors. Her character must be plainly manifested. It may refer actually to the city of Babylon, or it may refer to the false Babylon, which is the Roman church, and her daughters.
