Sis. Jamila,

The phrase "right hand" is not to be taken literally.  It is a figure of
speech pertaining to the "position of power".  Just like a Knight or other
soldier carries his sword in the right hand.  The *power* is in the name of
Jesus, and the Word (made flesh) is the Sword, hence He is said to be at the
"right hand".
