Bible Note: Hello Mommapbs It seems reasonable to me that the serpent WAS one of the species that God created in Gen 1:24-25. And that Satan spoke through that creature to beguile Eve. :-) For "crawling on the belly", I see it as God changing snakes so that they no longer had legs. You might say they were collateral damage for the curse, much the same as the swine that were destroyed when Legion was allowed to inhabit them. Steve |
