God revealed to Paul ... Paul wrote ... did you understand what was written in Post #15?
The concept of transcription is not that difficult to understand. Why are you arguing the point? You either believe or you don't believe.
If you believe, then why keep asking?
If you don't believe, then read Jeremiah 36 to see how God inspires and men write.

Point out the contradictions - Paul preached the hope of Israel and from the Law and Prophets:
(Acts 24:14 “But this I admit to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect I do serve the God of our fathers, believing everything that is in accordance with the Law and that is written in the Prophets)
(Acts 28:20 For this reason, therefore, I requested to see you and to speak with you, for I am wearing this chain for the sake of the hope of Israel.)
(Acts 24:14 “But this I admit to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect I do serve the God of our fathers, believing everything that is in accordance with the Law and that is written in the Prophets)
(Acts 28:20 For this reason, therefore, I requested to see you and to speak with you, for I am wearing this chain for the sake of the hope of Israel.)
And here's the funny thing which most medical practitioners may not even aware of. The serpent is an integral part of the legend of Asclepius (with the serpent entwined around the rod or staff of Asclepius), and the American Medical Association -- AMA (changed from the one shown below) and many others in the medical profession use this symbol.
Here is what we find in Britannica: "Asclepius, Greek Asklepios, Latin Aesculapius, Greco-Roman god of medicine, son of Apollo (god of healing, truth, and prophecy) and the mortal princess Coronis. The Centaur Chiron taught him the art of healing. At length Zeus (the king of the gods), afraid that Asclepius might render all men immortal, slew him with a thunderbolt."
Someone actually sent a letter to AMA asking why they made this change, and their answer is quite revealing.

You have already been told it is immodest and unbecoming for a woman on a Christian site... but your lack of honesty in this regard may prevent you from acknowledging that

That's under debate :
Have you ever wondered why is a snake, which is a symbol of destruction[4] used ironically as a symbol of healing? Well, the answer lies deep sown in history when Moses, around 1400 BC, used the bronze serpent erected on the pole to cure the people who were bitten by snakes.[5] The other reasons why serpent has been used is the shedding of the skin that indicated longevity and immortality
