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.
1 Mose 2:10-14
10
Und es ging aus von Eden ein Strom, zu wässern den Garten, und er teilte sich von da in vier Hauptwasser.
11
Das erste heißt Pison, das fließt um das ganze Land Hevila; und daselbst findet man Gold.
12
Und das Gold des Landes ist köstlich; und da findet man Bedellion und den Edelstein Onyx.
13
Das andere Wasser heißt Gihon, das fließt um um das ganze Mohrenland.
14
Das dritte Wasser heißt Hiddekel, das fließt vor Assyrien. Das vierte Wasser ist der Euphrat.
