Most people do not realize that in that picture, Christ is doing this.
He has one palm up and one palm down.
It's hard to see it in that.
Oh, yeah.
Yes.
Now, this is very interesting because, like, most people don't look at this right away.
But why?
Why is he doing that?
Why would he put his hand like that?
And what do those mean?
So let's look at the research.
Palms open are universal gestures of openness.
When we want something, what do we do?
We hold open our hand.
Yeah.
When we're offering something, what do we do?
We hold open our hand.
When we are open to suggestion, we show our palm and we have it visible.
A palm down gesture is a high competence cue.
It shows dominance.
