Arcana Coelestia (Elliott) n. 8614

8614. 'And so it was, his hands were steady' means the might which the power possessed then. This is clear from the meaning of 'hands' as power, dealt with above in 8612, so that the might which the power possessed is meant by the description that his hands were made steady by the support supplied to them.
