UDL: The Nature of Truth and Reality (Part 8a)

Brazen Serpent: "O Fire! be cool, and peace for Abraham!"

"So, Moses devised a trick to shame his argumentative people. He formed a brazing serpent and raised it up on a pole, upon a stick. And the Bible says, "As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so shall the Son of Man be lifted up." What was that serpent raised up for? As a reminder to those argumentative ones following Moses in the Exodus. The story says that he raised that brazen serpent up as a sign to them. And it says and when any man would look to that sign, he would become healed. Healed of what? The incident before that tells you what the problem was. They were just argumentative." Imam Mohammed(ra)
