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'.  
When Moses met God on the Mountain, he was told to throw his rod to the ground; it turned to a serpent; and then he was told to pick it up.
In the voice of the judge, God confronted Moses. Moses had the power of God (rod) but used it in the flesh (throw to the ground) by killing an Egyptian. God forgave him (he lifted the rod), and then used him to deliver Israel.


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.
In the voice of the prophet; speaking of Jesus, Jesus was the power of God. He was cast to the ground in his incarnation, where he became flesh (serpent) and condemned all men to death by his perfect obedience by removing all excuses. By his law which said that he who judged will be judged, he faced the judgement of the law. In his dual nature, his human instinct did not want to die. He put that to death and then operated in the power of God to be obedient to the father (he became the rod). Then he delivered mankind.


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.
The lifting of the serpent/rod signified the end of judgement.


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.
