Sometimes I see an old Christian symbol of a cross with a snake drapes over it or wrapped around it. Do you know what the meaning of this symbol is? Here is one example: [ link to gnosticwarrior.com] Just my curiosity. Thanks in advance for any answers. It might be another meaning, or the original, but in the bible Moses put a snake on a staff and the people looked to it to be cured. It ties together Old and New Testament as Jesus died on the cross for our sins and healing.  This. I've seen depictions of Moses holding that snake and cross symbol. One painting in particular was really bad ass looking. I wish I could find it again.
