Bible Question: Where is the Bible does it say lift up hands of Praise in the sanutary? or does it say that??? |
Bible Answer: Hi, Grace... We see it being done in Nehemiah. There are about dozen other references. It has its roots in Semite practices. I'm not sure that it means precisely the same thing to us today. Not that that would particularly matter. It has always seemed a poignant sign of adoration of the Lord to me. In Him, Doc |
