Flag:
There are two Hebrew words rendered "flag" in our Bible:
(1.) A word of Egyptian origin, and denoting "any green and course herbage, such as rushes and reeds, which grows in marshy places." (Genesis 41:2, 18) (here translated meadow.) It is perhaps the Cyperus esculentus.
(2.) A word which appears to be used in a very wide sense to denote "weeds of any kind." (Exodus 2:3; 2:5; Isaiah 19:6).
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
