Illustrator question, easy answer, does anyone know?

I’m doing something in Illustrator I was wondering if anyone knew how I can remove a line I drew with the pen tool. I know how to delete points and add them but I have a line on the wrist that was part of the hand. I was wondering how I can get rid of that line across the wrist to make it look all as one. Do i need to redraw the hand and not close the line?
