Theological / Devotional

A sign. A reference to ch. 16:38, where it is said that the personal censers of these men became a “sign.” The meaning here of the word thus translated is that of conspicuousness, in order to attract attention and constitute a warning. The general meaning is a “standard,” or “flag.”
