Best Answer

When Moses held up his hands, the isrealites won. When Moses did not hold up his hands, then the isrealites were defeated. Holding up your hand is a symol of asking God for help. It shows the people that God would give them great victory. Their own strength would not be able to let them win, but believing in God will.

Where is the story in the Old Testament about a battle that was won because the leader kept his arms raised to heaven?

This is a battle that Joshua fought against the Amalekites, while Moses held up his hand until the sun went down. The relevant verses are in Exodus 17: And Moses said to Joshua, choose men, and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand. (17:10) So Joshua did as Moses said, and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. When Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed, and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. But Moses' arms became heavy; so they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat upon it; and Aaron and Hur held up his arms, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands remained steadfast until sunset.
