What does the Bible say about Christ being the ensign of the people?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible describes Christ as the 'ensign' or banner for the people, pointing to His role as a unifying figure for the Gentiles who seek Him.

In Isaiah 11:10, Christ is referred to as the 'root of Jesse' who stands as an ensign for the people. This term signifies Christ as a banner or standard to which people rally, particularly the Gentiles who would seek Him for salvation. The ensign represents the unfolding of the gospel, reflecting how Christ, in His threefold office of Prophet, Priest, and King, gathers His people and proclaims His kingdom. This notion conveys the majestic and all-encompassing call of the gospel that invites all to come and find rest in Him.
Scripture References: Isaiah 11:10, Romans 15:12
