The word 'arm' is a symbolic word in the Scriptures, used very many times, signifying that upon which man relies for strength and support. The larger phrase, "the arm of the Lord" just means the strength and support of the Lord Himself. The arm represents the person; sometimes the person is in weakness, and his arm is described as being weak: sometimes in strength. The arm is the symbol of the person, sometimes of the people, the nation, but always indicating the state of strength or weakness. So this phrase, "the arm of the Lord", implies the showing of Himself in power on behalf of that which is according to His mind. To whom will the Lord show Himself in power? "To whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?"
