Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1188 (δεξιός, dexios) - meaning "right hand" or "right side." Usage: The term "yemani" is used to denote something that is on the right side or associated with the right hand. In biblical contexts, the right hand often symbolizes strength, power, and favor. The term can also refer to the southern direction, as the right hand side is associated with the south when facing east, the traditional orientation in ancient Israel. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the right hand was considered the hand of power and authority. It was customary to use the right hand for oaths and blessings. The right side was also associated with skill and favor, as seen in various biblical narratives. The association of the right hand with the south is due to the orientation of facing east, where the right side naturally points southward.
