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.
Matthew 13:3-7
3
He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, "Behold, a farmer went out to sow.
4
As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.
5
Others fell on rocky ground, where they didn't have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.
6
When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.
7
Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them.
