EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print from the Cologne Bible, created between 1478 and 1480, depicts a powerful biblical scene known as the "Brazen Serpent". In this ancient tale found in the Book of Numbers (21:6-9), the Israelites were plagued by fiery serpents that bit them, causing great suffering. However, their salvation came when they gazed upon a brazen image of a serpent erected on a pole by Moses. The artist skillfully captures this miraculous moment of rescue and redemption. The men depicted are visibly distressed, clutching their wounds inflicted by poisonous bites. Yet, as they direct their gaze towards the brazen serpent suspended high above them on its wooden perch, hope fills their eyes. This woodcut serves not only as an artistic representation but also holds deep religious significance for both Judaism and Christianity. It symbolizes faith in divine healing power and obedience to God's commandments. The intricate details of the brass or bronze serpent emphasize its importance within this historical event. As we contemplate this medieval masterpiece today, it reminds us of humanity's eternal quest for deliverance from afflictions and our innate desire to be saved from harm's way. It invites us to reflect upon our own struggles and seek solace in higher powers or forces beyond ourselves – whether through prayer or other means – just like those ancient Israelites did so long ago when facing perilous circumstances.
