Isa. 65:25

virginiabm:


   Hi my BT family, I have a question about Isa. 65:25, when it says that dust shall be the serpents meat.
   
   Now we know that dust represent flesh, so can someone help me understand this, because no one will be destoryed or hurt In God's holy mountain?

    Your sister in Christ Jesus,

      Virginia

Wanda:
Dear Virginia,

Please forgive my ignorant comment, as I clearly did not understand what the heck I was talking about. I think deleting it was the right thing to do.

God continues to humble me, and for that I am grateful.

In Christ's love

Dave in Tenn:
Actually, Wanda, I rather liked your comment.

Virginia, we could look at this simply.  The verses around this passage refer to other animals who have "adversarial" relationships--predator and prey, dangerous and those to whom they are dangerous--and the change of "diet" among those who currently do harm.  A snake, in this context, does no harm eating dust.

But let's take it a step in a different direction.  Suppose this is referring now to Satan (that old serpent) and his "diet" of mankind.  What then?

Here's some bits that may help understanding.

Oh Dave, sometimes I can take something quiet simple, and weave it into chaos.

Maybe a snake really is just a snake.

virginiabm:

    Wanda, there is nothing to forgive, I apppreciate you helping me. Like you said maybe a snake is just a snake. Thank you Wanda.

On the funny side of this, I did'nt realize you had deleted your comment, and I thought for sure I saw maybe a snake is just a snake. I was confuse there for a while, then I thought maybe this is God putting this in my mind,  maybe a snake is just a snake. Well at this time in scripture Satan's work is done, so the snake is just a snake.
