Right hand of God - wikipedia Right hand of God God Inviting Christ to Sit on the Throne at His Right Hand ( 1645 ) by Pieter de Grebber The right hand of God ( Dextera Domini `` right hand of the Lord '' in Latin ) or God 's right hand may refer to the Bible and common speech as a metaphor for the omnipotence of God and as a motif in art. In the Bible, to be at the right side `` is to be identified as being in the special place of honor ''. In Jesus ' The Sheep and the Goats, the sheep and goats are separated with the sheep on the right hand of God and the goats on the left hand. It is also a placement next to God in Heaven, in the traditional place of honor, mentioned in the New Testament as the place of Christ at Mark 16 : 19, Luke 22 : 69, Matthew 22 : 44 and 26 : 64, Acts 2 : 34 and 7 : 55, 1 Peter 3 : 22 and elsewhere. These uses reflect use of the phrase in the Old Testament, for example in Psalms 63 : 8 and 110 : 1. The implications of this anthropomorphic phrasing have been discussed at length by theologians, including Saint Thomas Aquinas.
