Who was the serpent in the garden of Eden?
The serpent in the Garden of Eden was not a literal snake or lizard, but what was it? It is a fallen Seraph, the same species as the Cherubim. This view is based on several factors, so lets take a look at these. One point is the serpent’s ability to speak and reason, suggesting a higher intelligence. Later biblical references to a satan (meaning accuser) as “that ancient serpent”, see Revelation 12:9. The description of an accuser as having been in Eden and as an anointed cherub, which you can find in Ezekiel 28:13-14. Calling a creature a seraph references the species or the body of the creature while calling it a Cherub is more of a job title, as this literally means throne guardian. I want to explain the whole Seraphim concept and its connections to dragon myths, and then I will discuss the interpretation of the serpent in the Garden of Eden as a seraph. Here’s a clear overview: The term “seraph” (the singular of “seraphim”) in Hebrew can be translated as either “burning ones” or “fiery serpents.” This association stems from the root word “saraph,” meaning “to burn.” In biblical descriptions, seraphim are portrayed as six-winged angelic beings.
