Moses's staff lifted in battle [∞]
As Israel entered the wilderness, they crossed the red sea as a picture of the cross. Entering into Rephidim is a shadow of the Christian entering into the rest of Christ, as Rephidim means 'rest'.
The first battle is fought by God against the flesh. This is represented by Amalek (עמלק - people, flesh עמ taught ל of the cross ק). Amalek is a grandson of Esau, who chose the flesh over his inheritance. He is the father of Edom (red, man) as another hint for the riddles.
When Moses hold up his hand (works) with the rod (power of God), Amalek, the flesh, is conquered. When it is down, Israel loses. Salvation was found in the lifting of the rod, just as it was of Cain and the ark as shadows of the cross.
This is a fun passage to unpack, but our focus here is to list examples of salvation being found in the cross through symbols of things being lifted up.
