Did You Know?

• Aug. 7, 2007 - Snakes have legs? By: SwimBug

We were studying about reptiles today and doing an experiment with a growing alligator toy.  We were reading about different reptiles and their characteristics.  Most of them have 4 legs right?  What about snakes?  Well...I believe they also have legs.  Look at Genesis 3.  After Adam and Eve ate the fruit, God cursed the serpent..."you will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of your life."   So if to crawl on his belly was part of the curse, then before the serpent was cursed he must have used legs.  We first learned of this through a yahoo group... SequoiaMinistry@yahoogroups.com.  This is a great group that my mom is on with lots of information on science and the Bible from Ranger Bruce... http://www.sequoiaministry.samsbiz.com/   He even has pictures of a snake with little spurs on the underside.  Ranger Bruce also says that the word serpent in Hebrew means upright shining creature.  How cool is that?  Wonder what the serpent looked like?  Do you know?
