33
The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles' feathers, and his nails like birds' claws.
Daniel 4:33
Reach
The hand in the Bible represents power, which is easy to understand, so to reach out or stretch out the hand means to exercise power, to put it to work. This is an image that's used a great deal in the stories of Moses, who repeatedly stretched out his hand (or his rod, which represents a more external kind of power) to bring plagues on Egypt and perform other miracles. This is a correspondence that makes sense, since we reach out constantly to use our hands to do our work.
