Chronicles of Narnia
There are 4 times this occurs in the Bible
Serpent – Genesis 3:1-5Serpent – Genesis 3:1-5 Now the serpent was more crafty than
any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?” The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’” “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
Donkey – Numbers 22:21-33Donkey – Numbers 22:21-33 When the donkey saw the angel of the Lord, it lay down under
Balaam, and he was angry and beat it with his staff. Then the Lord opened the donkey’s mouth, and it said to Balaam, “What have I done to you to make you beat me these three times?” Balaam answered the donkey, “You have made a fool of me! If only I had a sword in my hand, I would kill you right now.” The donkey said to Balaam, “Am I not your own donkey, which you have always ridden, to this day? Have I been in the habit of doing this to you?”“No,” he said.
Eagle – Revelation 8:13Eagle – Revelation 8:13 As I watched, I heard an eagle that was flying in midair call out in a
loud voice: “Woe! Woe! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth, because of the trumpet blasts about to be sounded by the other three angels!”
All Creatures – Revelation 5:13All Creatures – Revelation 5:13 Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the
earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!”
