Semantic RangeLiteral hand; power or strength; authority or control; agency or instrumentality; possession; direction or side; care or custody; portion or share; monument or memorial (in certain contexts).

The "hand of YHWH" represents divine intervention, judgment, or deliverance, making יָד a key term for expressing covenantal power and personal involvement in history.
