Numbers 21:6

⁶Quam ob rem misit Dominus in populum ignitos serpentes, ad quorum plagas et mortes plurimorum,a

Numbers 21 recounts Israel's continued journey through the wilderness, marked by both victory and severe judgment. It opens with a triumph over the Canaanites, but quickly shifts to the people's renewed grumbling against God and Moses, leading to a plague of poisonous snakes. God provides a unique remedy through a bronze serpent, foreshadowing Christ's redemptive work. The chapter concludes with Israel's successful military campaigns against Sihon and Og, securing territory east of the Jordan, demonstrating God's faithfulness despite their failures.
