Logically, it was a very deadly snake because the islanders recognized it as such and expected Paul to die very quickly. Non-believers claim it was a non-venomous snake, but I believe the natives would have known the difference. Some claim that Malta has no deadly snakes; perhaps it did 2000 years ago. However, the purpose was clearly to show those people that God was indeed with Paul and that they should hear his message.

If you got bit by a snake and you weren't cured how long would you live?

i would say it has to do with the snake and how long it bit you for but if it was a very dangerous snake then perhaps about 4 seconds the less hazzardous snakes it will be longer but you will be begging for it to end so it really depends on the snake and remember some snake bites are uncureable
