wtopneuma said:Study this some more. The term used was serpent, not snake. If you want to argue with a long list of commentators that this is not referring to Satan, be my guest. Rev 12:9 And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him.
Rev 20:2 And he laid hold on the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,
I just had to say that you have a good point.
In Gen. the hebrew word here is not snake, but is translated from a unknown word. I
had a teacher, who felt it may have been a treeslawth. because they craw on there bellys unless they are in a tree.
Now a dragon does not crawl on his belly, but never met one.
Could it be that the devil uses many forms and God cursed the animal that was used at the time.? Just a thought!
