a snake

A: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.

According to the story, a serpent did.

Contrary to popular belief, the forbidden fruit isn't an apple.

The origin of the idea that the "forbidden fruit" was an apple was caused by human translation errors when translating religious scripture from Latin to English.

The Latin word for "evil" is "Mali", whereas the Latin word for apple is "mala" (or "malum" depending on context). Whomever translated the works from Latin to English misinterpreted the Latin word "evil" for the English translation "apple". Therefore "forbidden fruit" is supposed to actually refer to "forbidden evil".

It is believed by those who follow the relevant religions that the "forbidden fruit" is referring to sexual intercourse (or the fluids of sexual intercourse, depending on the exact branch of the religion you ask). Which itself is somewhat silly, considering without sexual intercourse, the human race (and any other creature banished from such activity) would cease to exist. But the swallowing of sperm and of menstal fluid, is still a sin!

What was the covenant god made with Adam and Eve?

This first covenant was a conditional covenant. As such, it required obedience on Adam's part to enjoy the blessing. God gave Adam all the fruit and greens to eat, but Adam was prohibited from eating the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden. This was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. God warned Adam that if he ate of the fruit of that tree he would die. We can assume from this warning that Adam was created to live forever. However, he did eat of this fruit and he did die, both spiritually and then physically.
