Blainer) Ever see the serpent on a rod as symbol of the medical profession on a doctor's license plate? The serpent alludes to the BENIGN serpent Moses raised up on a rod for the Children of Israel to look upon with faith to be healed of the wounds recieved by the poisonous vipers that were biting them. Many died, however, because of failure to take such simple measures as to look upon the benign serpent. A serpent as a symbol of Jesus Christ is not so far-fetched after all, huh? Didn't Jesus refer to the Pharisees as "a generation of vipers?" He was alluding to the vipers of Moses' time, and it was therefore understood that the benign serpent Moses raised up symbolized Jesus Christ. Quetzalcoatl was called the serpent God, and had plumes emanating from his head to symbolize the light that came from Jesus as he ministered to these people.
