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.

1957. 'The spring of the Living One who sees me' means the truth that was thus clearly visible. This too is clear from what has been stated, namely that the Lord saw clearly what the situation was with the truth belonging to this rational - that it was not good. The Lord's Interior Man from which He saw is called 'the Living One who sees' because it was joined to the Internal Man, which is Jehovah, who Alone has life and who Alone sees, as shown just above in 1954.
