“Will Jesus now have to apologize for his ancient ancestor destroying the brazen serpent Moses made?”

No, because only human beings can apologize. God has no such capacity for He has no such need. Also, why would a perfect God apologize for the wrong doing - if that’s what it was - of a mere mortal sinful man? Wasn’t dying for Hezekiah’s sins enough?

When people got upset over the P**s Christ “art”, designed to offend Christians, I said “It is ONLY a piece of shaped brass in a bottle of urine. Nothing more!”

Even St Paul did not get upset over the nude statues of the Roman gods in Athens, but used the one empty alter “To the unknown god” to proclaim Jesus.
As I’ve said many times, the line between veneration of a statue and worshiping the statue is very fine.
