3334. 'And he rose up' means a consequent raising up. This is clear from the meaning of 'rising up' wherever it is used, as embodying a raising up, dealt with in 2401, 2785, 2912, 2927. A person is said to be raised up when he is being perfected as regards spiritual and celestial things, that is, as regards truth which belongs to faith, and as regards good which belongs to love and charity, 3171.

Right hand, man of the

  

'The man of the right hand,' as in Psalm 80:17, signifies the Lord with respect to the Word. He is called 'the man of the right hand,' because the Lord has power by divine truth, which is the Word. He had the divine power itself when He fulfilled the whole Word. So He also said that, 'they should see the soul of a person sitting in power, on the right hand of the Father!'
