I saw someone with a sword lifted in their right hand; their left hand was being used to tend, raise and educate children:
“One hand defending, one hand raising children; this is the nature of your revolution. The right hand raised in defence, the left hand lowered to educate.”
“And the leaders stood behind the whole house of Judah, who were building on the wall.
Those who carried burdens were loaded in such a way that each laboured on the work with one hand and held his weapon with the other. And each of the builders had his sword strapped at his side while he built.”
Nehemiah 4:16-18 (ESV)
