EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "As Moses Lifted up the Serpent in the Wilderness" transports us back to biblical times. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures a powerful moment from the Book of Numbers. The scene depicts Moses holding a staff high above his head, with a bronze serpent coiled around it. Surrounding him is a vast wilderness, evoking both awe and trepidation. The intricate details of the engraving bring to life every wrinkle on Moses' face and every scale on the serpent's body. This iconic story recounts how God punished the Israelites for their disobedience by sending venomous snakes into their camp. As people were bitten and faced certain death, they cried out to Moses for help. In response, God instructed Moses to craft a bronze serpent and raise it high so that anyone who looked upon it would be healed. The image serves as a reminder of faith and redemption amidst adversity. It symbolizes hope in times of despair and emphasizes divine intervention when all seems lost. Preserved within private collections over centuries, this engraving showcases not only artistic mastery but also its enduring significance as part of religious history. Its inclusion in unidentified books further highlights its widespread influence across various publications. Through this print, we are invited to reflect on our own struggles and find solace in knowing that even during our darkest moments, there is always light waiting to guide us towards healing and salvation.
