The staff is first mentioned in the Book of Exodus (chapter 4, verse 2), when God appears to Moses in the burning bush. God asks what Moses has in his hand, and Moses answers a staff (a rod in the KJV version).The staff is miraculously transformed into a snake and then back into a staff.uring the Exodus, Moses stretches out his hand with the staff to part the Red Sea. While in the wilderness after leaving Egypt Moses follows God's command to strike a rock with the rod to create a spring for the Israelites to drink from.
The turning of Moses' staff into a serpent, which became a staff again when Moses took it by the tail, had reference to the calling of Moses. The staff in his hand was his shepherd's crook, and represented his calling as a shepherd.od entrusts the staff to us to be stewards of what it can do. He wants that staff to bless others. We should note that Moses' staff achieved what he wanted-to bring water from the rock-even though he misused it. But, because he did it in his anger, or his flesh, he failed to enter the Promised Land.
