As Moses Lifted Up the Bronze Serpent in the Wilderness
Series Types of Christ
Jesus established the typology between himself and the bronze serpent: "As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in him may have eternal life" (John 3:14-15). If the serpent were put on the pole horizontally toward the top, it would have formed a cross. If the snake were wrapped around the pole, it would form the Asclepius, the sign for healing. This too would be fitting imagery in that "by [Christ's] stripes we are healed" (Isaiah 53:5).
