2 Crônicas 36:14
14
Além disso todos os chefes dos sacerdotes e o povo aumentavam cada vez mais a sua infidelidade, seguindo todas as abominações dos gentios; e profanaram a casa do Senhor, que ele tinha santificado para si em Jerusalém.

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.
