Lesson 252: The Brazen Serpent

Updated: Aug 27

Num. 21:4-9


Full Lesson HERE



INTRODUCTION. After the death of Aaron the people of Israel continued their journey toward Canaan. Since the king of Edom refused their passage through his territory on the King's Highway, the people had to travel through the area known as the Arabah. The Arabah is the name for the entire valley region from Mount Hermon in the north to the Red Sea in the south and includes the Sea of Galilee, the Jordan River, and the Dead Sea. The area south of the Dead Sea is a hot, barren desert, with steep, narrow ravines.


Since the Israelites could not travel on the highway, their journey was much more difficult, and they became very discouraged. Again the people complained, not only against Moses but against God as well. The Lord sent poisonous snakes against them and many people died. The people then told Moses they had sinned and asked him to pray to the Lord to remove the snakes. What did God tell Moses to do?
