It's an incredible image to think that all the Hebrews had to do to be healed from the snake bites was to look at a bronze snake lifted up.
And it is a rather simple gesture for us to look up and gaze upon the Crucified Lord, the One Who, for the salvation of the world underwent a terrible death. Yet He did not stay dead, for He Resurrected and lives forever and ever, reigning on high. In Him, we have a share in abundant Life, as we join ourselves more closely in the Paschal Mystery, participating in dying and rising with Him.
