1 | Was the serpent being worshipped? | Num 21:8 | Makarios | 9183 | ||
Why did the LORD allow an image of a serpent to be made and for the Israelites to look to it for life? (Num. 21:8) Wouldn't this be in violation of Ex. 20:4? |

I believe the BRAZEN serpent was a type of Christ. Somehow it was like the opposite. Try to receive the light from these scriptures below: John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: Numbers 21:4 And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged F51 because of the way. 5 And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, neither is there any water; and our soul loatheth this light bread. 6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died. 7 Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD, and against thee; pray unto the LORD, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people. 8 And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live. 9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived. As we lift up Jesus Christ from the earth, people look at him and are healed. People of this world including believers are looking at their problems and thereby being devoured and killed by snakes (problems of this world), if they will look to Jesus high and lifted up they will be healed. Look to Jesus not the problems of this world. (Poisonous snakes) Love, Tim Hines |

Greetings again, Tim! I apologize for the delay in writing back to you. I haven't spent time here at this StudyBibleForum in a very long while, and I'm just getting back to the posts that you have written in response to some of mine that I wrote in the past. Blessings to you, Makarios |
