Translation of Genesis 3:1
The serpent was crafty than anything alive of the field which God Yahweh has done.
He said to the woman: Whether does God said: Don't eat from any field of the garden?
Comments
But snakes do not eat dust! (neither as far as I know also all kinds of reptilians not dinosaurs) neither known snakes are particularly smart. Victor Porton supposes that the only remaining explanation is that the "snake" was a snake-shaped alien.
From Rev 12:9 it is clear that the "snake" was an avatar of Devil.
