The Vanishing Serpents

Aaron’s rod of life took on the nature of the serpent, just as Christ was made sin for us

BY HENRY M. MORRIS, PH.D.

“For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.” (Exodus 7:12)

Like the future image of the beast, which will seem to have life, these magician-induced serpents can only have been “lying wonders” (2 Thessalonians 2:9).

Neither men nor demons can really create life; this is a prerogative of God alone, who “created every living creature” (Genesis 1:21).

However, both human magicians and demons can generate hypnotic mental states and occult hallucinations that ungodly people like Pharaoh may be deceived into seeing as real physical entities.

When their demonstration was over, however, nothing was left. Even their rods (not “serpents”) were gone, for Aaron’s genuine serpent had made a meal of them.

In a true miracle of creation, Aaron’s God had transmuted the dead atoms of a wooden stick (just as He later made it to produce blossoms and almonds, Numbers 17:8) into a living serpent, capable of consuming other sticks that only appeared to be serpents.

The deception of the magicians was revealed when they were unable later to imitate Moses’ miracle of turning dust into lice throughout the land of Egypt (Exodus 8:18).

Interestingly, many people believed for many centuries that similar phenomena — which they called “spontaneous generation” — occurred naturalistically, but this notion was scientifically demolished by Pasteur over a hundred years ago.

Only the living God can createlife!

The miracle of Aaron’s rod is also a parable.

Aaron’s rod of life took on the nature of theserpent, just as Christ was made sin for us (2 Corinthians 5:21).

But then it swallowed up the other serpent-rods, and the sting of “that old serpent” was put away.

Thus, “death is swallowed up in victory.O death, where is thy sting?” (1 Corinthians 15:54-55).

The Institute for Creation Research (ICR) wants people to know that God’s Word can be trusted in everything it speaks about—from how and why we were made, to how the universe was formed, to how we can know God and receive all He has planned for us.

After 50 years of ministry, ICR remains a leader in scientific research within the context of biblical creation. Founded by Dr. Henry Morris in 1970, ICR exists to conduct scientific research within the realms of origins and Earth history, and then to educate the public both formally and informally through professional training programs, through conferences and seminars around the country, and through books, magazines, and media presentations.
