'Arms' in the Bible

Then He took a child, had him stand among them, and taking him in His arms, He said to them,

After taking them in His arms, He laid His hands on them and blessed them.

Simeon took Him up in his arms, praised God, and said:

So he got up and went to his father. But while the son was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion. He ran, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him.
