‏ Numbers 21:8-9

v. 8: God told Moses to make a bronze serpent and put it on a pole. Anyone who was bitten could look at the bronze serpent and be healed. God did not take away the serpents, but He gave a way for the people to be saved if they trusted Him .

v. 9: Moses made the bronze serpent and lifted it up. Whoever looked at it lived, even if they had been bitten. This act was not only a miracle, but also a picture of how faith in Jesus brings healing and life (Numbers 21:9; John 3:14-15 ^a).
