Batman: Greetings, old chum! The story of Numbers 21 begins with the Israelites in the wilderness, grumbling yet again against the Lord!

Robin: Oh, Batman! What did they do this time?

Batman: Well, Robin, it seems they had become so weary of their journey that they spoke out against God and Moses!

Joker: Ha ha ha! I can't believe those silly Israelites!

Batman: Yes, Joker, but God wasn't too pleased with their grumbling. So he sent poisonous snakes to punish them!

Catwoman: Oh, how cruel!

Robin: But, Batman, what happened next?

Batman: Well, Robin, the people repented and asked Moses to pray for them. So God told Moses to make a bronze snake and put it on a pole. Whoever looked at the bronze snake would be healed of the snakebite!

Riddler: You don't say! What an interesting story!

Batman: Indeed, Riddler. And it's a reminder that we must always have faith in God, even in the midst of trials and tribulations!
