The book of Acts (in Bible), chapter 28, verses 3-6 gives an account of the apostle Paul being bitten by one but not harmed. This happened while he was shipwrecked on the island.
The Apostle Paul was bitten by a viper on the island of Malta (Melita). Despite the venomous bite, he miraculously did not suffer any harm, and the locals viewed it as a sign of his divine protection.
Paul preached on the island of Malta, also known as Melita, during his journey to Rome as a prisoner. He stayed there for three months after being shipwrecked while traveling to Italy.
According to Acts of the Apostles, Paul was shipwrecked on the island of Malta on his way to Rome. There is no confirmation in Paul's own epistles of either the appeal to Caesar or the journey to Rome, and Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says that some dismiss the account of Paul's hazardous sea journey in Acts 27:1-28:14 as novelistic fiction. On this view, there was no shipwreck on Paul's way to Rome.
If you are bitten and are fortunate enough to clean the wound (with holy water) you might avoid the transformation. Those that are bitten will turn into Demons, this will in turn refuse you entry into heaven.
Some other names for holy island are sacred island, divine island, or sanctified island.
The British island known as Holy Island is Lindisfarne, located off the northeast coast of England. Lindisfarne is renowned for its historical significance as the site of an important medieval Christian monastery.
