The narrative in Numbers appears to be an etiological tale from before Hezekiah’s reform, explaining the origin of this copper serpent.The author of the tale in Numbers was familiar with this image (Nehushtan) either in fact or by reputation, and felt that the presence of such a figure among the Israelites, perhaps even in the Temple itself, needed...
One explanation is that Nehushtan was a vestige of pre-Israelite practices. Iconographic evidence from Late Bronze Age Palestine shows an association between sacred trees and serpents as symbols of fertility.Specifically, Karen Randolph Joines describes a number of items discovered in several excavations in Israel dating to the Late Bronze Age (ca....
Another possibility, if we focus on iconographic evidence, is that the statue reflects Egyptian culture. Serpents were seen by Egyptian rulers as symbols of life, healing, and protection. Deities and kings were often pictured with uraei (serpent heads) on their foreheads or otherwise pictured in association with protective uraei. The image of a pro...
The book of Kings presents Hezekiah as a religious reformer and explains his disposal of Nehushtan along these lines, as the destruction of an idol. Many contemporary scholars, however, dispute the historicity of this reform. Nadav Na’aman of Tel Aviv University, for instance, insists concerning Hezekiah: “…there is as yet no clear archaeological e...
The removal of Nehushtan may be understood as part of Hezekiah’s submission to the Assyrians during the crisis of 701 B.C.E. While both the Bible and the records of the Assyrian King Sennacherib agree that the city of Jerusalem was not conquered—ascribed by the biblical writer to miraculous divine intervention—and that Hezekiah remained on the thro...
Hezekiah’s removal of Nehushtan could also have been connected to the massive tribute payment to the Assyrian king. In addition to the gold and silver payment referenced in 2 Kings 18:14-15, Sennacherib’s royal annals mention that Hezekiah paid “…vessels of copper, iron, bronze and tin…”Thus, Nehushtan may have been given to the Assyrians as part o...
The most reasonable solution to the puzzle of Nehushtan is that it was a pre-Israelite, Egyptian style cultic image of a serpent mounted on a sacred pole. For the Canaanites, it likely represented a deity with some relationship to the goddess Asherah, and was retained as part of the “cultic paraphernalia” of the worship of YHWH in Jerusalem. Someti...
