Question
What is the symbolism of God asking Moses to make a bronze snake and put in on a pole?

Answer
hi, as you read in verses 8-9  THE LORD SAID TO MOSES, : MAKE A SNAKE AND PUT IT UP ON A POLE; ANYONE WHO IS BITTEN CAN LOOK AT IT AND LIVE. go to the New Testament the book of John chapter 3:14-15.. JUST AS MOSES LIFTED UP THE SNAKE IN THE DESERT, SO THE SON OF MAN MUST BE LISTED UP, THAT EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES IN HIM MAY HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. Thats the symblism . thank you
