When Israel murmured against God about going back to Egypt God sent the symbol of Egypt (“fiery” serpent) to curse and remind them that there is no protection or salvation in Egypt. But all of this was just pointing to something greater, namely, The Curse that was lifted up on a pole at Golgotha named Jesus.
