"The Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation." 2. The side on which she fights - "My banner." 3. The name round which she rallies - "Jehovah." "One Lord, one faith, one baptism" (Ephesians 6:5). 4. The confidence by which she is inspired. The inscription on a banner frequently sets forth the ground of confidence. "God and my right." 5. The certainty she has of victory. - J.O. Parallel Verses KJV: And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi:WEB: Moses built an altar, and called its name Yahweh our Banner. |
