What's interesting is that the earliest reference to an identity for the serpent of the garden is the angel Gadreel. That name means "wall of God".
So, we've got a corruption of the Wall of God leading to humanity's knowledge that would introduce death and suffering to reality as we know it.
Not really relevant to this conversation, but interesting none the less.
Cool.. can I do that too? Cause randomly researching other things I came across
And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he comes, he must continue a short space.
And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goes into perdition.
Which ya know, I saw a theory here couple years back that was not well received at all, on how Harry shall return from MM using a pentagonal shaped time travel spell that touches two spots twice entertwining six Dresden timelines with the one already there(MM one). Well... this little biblical snippet(if you consider king and magus the same article as per the 3 wise men/3 kings/3 magus who visited TWC in his manger, ect, ect). Based on the idea Kemmler used the pull duplicates from other timelines 6 times to cheat his death those 6 times but on the seventh, seven being a magical number and all, it actually summons the equal or greater version of themselves and Harry is MM Harrys sixth try at it, making Harry magical #7 there. The 'continue a short space' line as it pertains to Rosenburg bridge theory of connecting points across vast distances, ect, ect. Pretty sure he even talked about the one who wasn't, about how all the versions that didn't happen coalesce into one or something? making the eight accounted for to..
Bottom line, really wish that theory was still around, cause I accidently found an outside reference to it. Anyway..
