What does the Bible say about the hands of Jesus?

Answered in 4 sources

The hands of Jesus are significant as they symbolize His power, sovereignty, and the scars that affirm our salvation.

The hands of Jesus are a profound symbol in Scripture, reflecting His power and sovereignty. In Luke 24:39-40, Jesus invites the disciples to behold His hands, showing them the scars that affirm His sacrificial death. These scars signify that salvation is fully accomplished through His suffering. Additionally, the hands of Jesus demonstrate His touch of compassion, as seen in Matthew 8:3, where He touches a leper, saying, 'I will; be thou clean.' Through His hands, He performs miracles, exerts dominion over creation, and extends His grace to sinners, illustrating that our security lies in His capable hands.
