Luke 10:18-19 NASB
And He said to them, I was watching Satan fall from heaven like lightning. 19 Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you.
Jesus sent out seventy disciples into the cities ahead of Him. He sent them in pairs. In the last days He will designate two witnesses to testify of the coming judgement.
Satan fell as the disciples spread the gospel. He lost his footing in heaven as they traveled and spoke the words of life. His accusations could not pierce the shield of Christ's righteousness.
Snakes and scorpions reflect those from the abyss he leads to persecute those on earth in the last days.
