“And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of the earth: and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly:”
Isaiah 5:26 (KJV)
Commentary on Isaiah 5:26
God's 'lifting up an ensign' (signal) to distant nations and 'hissing' (whistling to summon) them depicts sovereign control over foreign powers used as judgment instruments. The imagery of nations coming 'swiftly' from 'the end of the earth' shows divine orchestration of history—even pagan armies accomplish God's purposes. This anticipates Habakkuk's revelation that God raised Chaldeans for judgment (Habakkuk 1:6) and demonstrates the Reformed conviction of divine providence governing all events.
