The meaning of Asp in the Bible
(From Easton's Bible Dictionary)(Heb. pethen), Deuteronomy 32:33; Job 20:14,16; Isaiah 11:8. It was probably the Egyptian cobra (Naja haje), which was very poisonous (Romans 3:13; Gr. aspis). The Egyptians worshipped it as the uraeus , and it was found in the desert and in the fields. The peace and security of Messiah's reign is represented by the figure of a child playing on the hole of the asp. (See ADDER .)
