So snakes can talk then?
It was a talking serpent. Serpent in Hebrew is both a noun and an adjective. And just like in every language a talking snake would be a reference to a type of person. In the bible a talking serpent is a specific reference to a religious deceiver.
You are arguing with talking serpents and yet you don't believe in talking serpents?
ugh.
for shits sake, you are smarter than that.....
Bible genesis chapter 3 says "now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the lord God had made"
At that time God had only made beasts of the field and Adam and Eve so the serpent was not a human being.
Yet the serpent speaks at genesis 3.4
The story, Animal Farm, by George Orwell, clearly has farm animals talking and debating the merits of the ten commandments.
Does that mean the author intended for people to believe that animals can talk?
Smarten up.
People have been comparing other people in every culture, nation, and language according to similar attributes ever since people could talk to either honor or insult.
Am I telling you something that you don't already know?
'
The only animals that could ever talk to other people were animals of the human sort.
