Oh please, the Book of Gensis was written around 1450 B.C. And the story of the Serpent in the garden will be found in that book. I am not concerned so much with Codification as I am with the existance of the written word in regards to the Gensis account.
According to Genesis 3:14 when God saw that the serpent had deceived Eve in the garden. God stated that the serpent from then on would travel on his belly. I use to tell people that snakes once had legs, and according to the Scriptures walked upright. Of course every non believer thought that was simply a foolish myth from the Bible.
However a recent finding now shows us that yes snakes in the past did have legs. Now science will tell you this is a riddle. Their question will be. "Why do these snake species have hind limbs? If legs were the norm for snake ancestors, it would make sense to see the species advanced anatomy as only superficially similar to more modern snakes. On the other hand, the stubby limbs on the fossil snakes might represent an evolutionary reversal.
The fact that these snake fossils have been found with legs, only confirms the Biblical account. And the belief by science that snakes not having legs today might be an evolutionary reversal. Is only believed, because they have ignored what the God of the Bible already stated.
The true author of the Quran was the serpent in the garden, so naturally he would be aware of the account. The Quran is just describing the same event from an opposing viewpoint. However, with more of a diabolical spin.

Men are Four:
He who knows and knows that he knows, He is wise - follow him.
He who knows and knows not that he knows, He is asleep - awaken him.
He who knows not and knows that he knows not, He is simple - teach him.
He who knows not and knows not that he knows not, He is a fool - shun him.

The true author was not the serpent in the garden.
Of course
Quote:
Muhammad was very aware of the bible and he was in contact with Christians. He was versed in the bible due to that. He also got many of the stories turned around. Whether he did that on purpose is the question. Certainly there are bible stories that don't match either. So if stories are changed is it due to there being different writers, or the writer having an agenda?
How about talking asses? There's one in the bible, and more than a few here.
