The first storytellers knew they were not really telling a genuine account of the first man. And they knew there was not really a talking snake. This was a moral tale that was based on even earlier Near Eastern creation stories. Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says we can learn most from the story by regarding it as mythical and looking for the moral truths it tells about humanity, rather than regarding it as some sort of historical account. We should not begin a search for the type of snake in this story, when there was none.

Where does the snake come from in the bible?
I am guessing that you mean that when does it first appear, it is as a serpent. In the story of Adam and Eve, the serpent is the one that tries to deceive Adam and Eve into eating the forbidden fruit. He eventually convinces Eve to eat the fruit and Eve convinces Adam to eat the fruit as well. They then were made to leave the garden because of their disobedience to God.

a snakeA:A snake with legs but when Adam and eve ate the forbidden fruit god was angered with the snake (i think the snake was the temptation of lucifer) god took away the snakes legs and arms. Answer from Islamic Perspective (Quran)In Quran, it is mentioned that Satan is the one who persuaded Adam and Eve to eat from the tree that God has forbidden them to approach. God informed both Adam and Eve that Satan is their enemy and advised them not to obey him. However, God- the All Knowledgeable- know in advance that Satan will persuade and cheat both Adam and Eve to eat from the forbidden tree.

What happened to Adam and the garden?
The snake(Satan) told Eve that if she ate the fruit from the tree that she would become as powerful as God, or maybe more powerful as Him. Us humans are all power hungry so of course Eve took a bite. She then told Adam to take a bite, thus they all sinned.AddendumThe question that has not been answered is why Adam and Eve listened to Satan in the first place. Snakes of today actually have vestigal legs inside them. Unlike snakes of today, Satan was a beautiful shining and irridescant creature walking on 2 legs. (Anyway, would you trust a talking snake?)

How did the devil appear in the garden?
The devil did not appear in the Garden of Eden. The story describes a snake, or serpent, as deceiving Eve into eating the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Because of this God punished the snake and all his descendant by making them crawl on their bellies (Genesis 3:14). If it had not really been a snake, but simply the devil disguised as a snake, then the devil was easily able to deceive God himself. Is that theologically sound?
