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. 21:8
Eldad and Medad began to prophesy on their own. A young man ran and told Moses, saying, "Eldad and Medad prophesy in the camp." Joshua said to Moses, "Moses, forbid them!" But Moses said, "Heck, I wish everyone was a prophet!" 11:26-29
"If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will ... speak unto him in a dream." Now
there's a reliable way to communicate with someone! 12:6
"There shall come a Star out of Jacob"
This verse is called the "star prophecy"
and is sometimes claimed to be a prophecy of the
star of Bethlehem
(Matthew 2:2). But this seems unlikely, since the verse refers to Moab, and the kingdom of Moab
didn't exist in New Testament times. Jesus didn't smite Moab or kill the children of Sheth.
("Sheth" here refers to Seth -- the son of Adam, from whom Noah and, according to the Bible, all other humans
descended. So if this is a prophecy about Jesus, then it prophesies that Jesus will someday
kill everyone on earth.) 24:17
