Kommentar zu Jeschijahu 48:13
אַף־יָדִי֙ יָ֣סְדָה אֶ֔רֶץ וִֽימִינִ֖י טִפְּחָ֣ה שָׁמָ֑יִם קֹרֵ֥א אֲנִ֛י אֲלֵיהֶ֖ם יַעַמְד֥וּ יַחְדָּֽו׃
Meine Hand hat die Erde gegründet und meine Rechte den Himmel ausgespannt. Ich rufe ihnen zu, sie stellen sich sofort ein, [um meinen Befehlen zu gehorchen].
Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
ידי Mine hand. My left hand.18From the word ימיני My right hand, which follows in the second sentence of the verse, I. E. probably inferred that the general term ידי is here used for שמאלי My left hand.

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
It is a figurative expression; the right hand is used in connection with the heavens, because they are higher in rank than the earth.
