My short answer: yes
My long answer: In Genesis it says that every creature that takes the life of a human will have to give an account to God. Snakes have venom that kills. The snake that allowed Satan to tempt Eve was punished to crawl on its belly for the rest of its days- meaning more than that specific snake. Likewise, the punishments for Adam (men) and Eve (women) are still in effect to this day as well, because every man and woman sins- not just Adam and Eve.
Matter of fact, when Jesus came in the likeness of sinful men (human) in the New Testament, it was represented in the Old Testament by a snake statue. The Israelites sinned, God sent deadly snakes as punishment, but set up a statue in the likeness of a snake, that whosoever would come look upon it would not die. (Which is why medical personnel wear a snake symbol wrapped around a pole as a sign of medical help). In both situations, what was only in likeness was not evil, but what was actual was evil. “If you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more does your Heavenly Father know how to give good gifts to His children?”
“Where oh death is your sting?” Death is the result of evil. What has the sting of death? Scorpions, bees, and anything that has poisonous venom- such as snakes. Notice that John the Baptist ate locusts and wild honey- not bees and honey. Why? Because locusts eat vegetation. Notice how cows are ‘clean’ because they eat grass, but pigs are ‘unclean’ because they eat anything- even humans. I watched a Criminal Minds episode where the murderer used pigs to kill his victims.
The Old Testament used the word ‘unclean’ for both physical and spiritual things- diseases, animals, humans, molds, anything evil. God sends disease to punish sinners. God sent demons to physicality- which is why they wanted to go into unclean pigs after Jesus cast them out of a human. They can’t float around like free spirits, they need to always be in something physical- it’s their punishment- cast down to the earth (physicality). I believe demons are in germs that spread disease, and in things like flies. Beelzebub was a statue of a big fly which was worshipped for its power of disease. Jesus was accused of casting out demons by the power of Beelzubub- which was referred to as the power of demons. “Wormwood” was the name of a demon who fell from heaven to the earth.
So not only snakes, but worms, pigs, etc. God sends the angel of death- that does not mean that death is not evil- demons used to be angels, so the angel of death could be Satan- whom God sends to test us for heaven. God used Pharoah to bring about His Will, Pharoah was evil- just because God sends or uses someone to bring about His will, doesn’t necessarily mean they are good.
