<Li> Numbers 21 : 6 - 8 `` ( 6 ) And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people , and they bit the people ; and much people of Israel died . ( 7 ) Therefore the people came to Moses , and said , We have sinned , for we have spoken against the LORD , and against thee ; pray unto the LORD , that he take away the serpents from us . And Moses prayed for the people . ( 8 ) And the LORD said unto Moses , Make thee a fiery serpent , and set it upon a pole : and it shall come to pass , that every one that is bitten , when he looketh upon it , shall live . '' This symbol , the Nehushtan , is similar to the ancient Greek Rod of Asklepios ( frequently confused with the caduceus ) and is frequently cited as an instance of the same archetype . </Li>
