What is the Right Hand and the Left Hand?
The right hand and the left hand are English translations of ancient text and roles.
Mark 10:35-37; Matthew 20:20 John and James and their mother inquired about the positions of the left hand and the right hand. We can view this through Europe’s theologians or through the traditions of ancient civilizations.
Based on ancient civilizations
Two positions that served the Kings and High Priest were the Right Hand and the Left Hand.
The Right Hand - the Segan (the assistant to the High Priest) who would take over after Jesus ascended. John 21:17 Peter would become the High Priest of Rome (Called Bishop by the Europeans). Is this why Jesus asked Peter to feed his Sheep? Was Peter appointed as the Right Hand of Jesus assigned to minister to the disciples after Jesus was carried up to the mountains or sky.
The Left Hand- Minister to the House of the High Priest cared for the family of the high priest. John was told to take care of Mary at the crucifixion. John was the minister to the House of Jesus.
John 19: 26-27 Mark 10:37, Matthew 20:20, John 21:17
This is the reason Mary was given to John, also the word for right hand in the Māori lanugauge is maui meaning love. This is John's name in ancient times the symbols in this name John is Wakan or Nakawa. One of the Japanese definitions of Nakawa is Peaceful and harmonious.
