1 | The Serpent's Class | Gen 3:1 | Lionstrong | 19701 | ||
OF THE CLASSES OF ANIMALS the serpent at this time did not belong to those that crept on the ground. He belonged to the class of beasts of the field. Classes of animals: (Gen. 1: 24, 26) • Fish of the sea (animals whoes domain was bodies of water) • Birds of the sky (animals whoes domain was the sky) • Beasts of the earth (wild land animals) • Cattle (domestic animals) • Creeping things (bugs, low crawling animals) Lionstrong |

2 | The Serpent's Class | Gen 3:1 | Sir Pent | 20339 | ||
Clarification ................................... Dear Lionstrong, I'm not sure exactly what your point is in this post. However, I'm not sure that this interpretation of the verse is the only possible one. Just because the verse says that the serpent was more crafty than any "beast of the field", that doesn't mean that it is necessarily in the same category. If I say that Curt Schilling is a better pitcher than anyone on the Yankees, it doesn't mean that Curt is a Yankee (in fact he plays for Arizona). Similarly, the serpent could actually be in the category of "creeping things" and yet still be more crafty than the "beasts of the field". |

3 | The Serpent's Class | Gen 3:1 | Lionstrong | 20449 | ||
Point taken, Sir Pent. ......... but at this point the serpent had not been cursed to a life of low crawling, which why I don't believe it was in the class of creeping things. .............. Thanks, Lionstrong |
