Arcana Coelestia # 8612
8612. 'Supported his hands' means support supplied to the power of truth engaged in conflict. This is clear from the meaning of 'hands' as power, dealt with in 878, 4931-4937, 7518, 8050, 8153, at this point the power of truth engaged in conflict, represented by 'Joshua', 8595. The reason why support supplied to truth engaged in conflict is meant by Aaron and Hur's supporting Moses' hands is that when Moses' hands were raised up Joshua prevailed.
