Etymology[]

The "Hand of God" motif is a hand with no body attached, appearing in Jewish and Christian art, especially of the Late Antique and Early Medieval periods when depiction of God as a human figure was considered unacceptable. The hand indicates intervention in or approval of affairs on Earth by God. It is an artistic metaphor not intended to indicate an actual hand is physically present and functions as symbol of either God's presence or the voice of God, or signifying God's acceptance of a sacrifice.

Alternately, it may be inspired by the founder of Kyokushin Karate, Masutatsu Oyama, whose intense training and career as a martial artist allowed him to display incredible feats of strength and martial arts skill, earning him the nickname of the Godhand.
