Hand
Hands in the Bible represent power, the force with which things are put into action. To be specific, they represent the power of spiritual good -- which is the love of others and serving others -- expressed through spiritual truth -- which is an understanding and knowledge of what it is to love and serve others. This is in contrast to the feet, which represent power on the natural level, and a “rod,” which represents the power of the hand passed down into external or natural ideas. In a few cases in the Bible, hands also represent communication and a drawing together. This is true when people lift their hands to heaven or to Jehovah, and also when the Lord touches children or touches people to heal them.
Zechariah 6:1-8
1
Again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, four chariots came out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.
2
In the first chariot were red horses; in the second chariot black horses;
3
in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot dappled horses, all of them powerful.
4
Then I asked the angel who talked with me, "What are these, my lord?"
5
The angel answered me, "These are the four winds of the sky, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
6
The one with the black horses goes out toward the north country; and the white went out after them; and the dappled went forth toward the south country."
7
The strong went out, and sought to go that they might walk back and forth through the earth: and he said, "go around and through the earth!" So they walked back and forth through the earth.
8
Then he called to me, and spoke to me, saying, "Behold, those who go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country."
