Okay, regarding #5 I know why I missed it. I didn’t think of “serpents” and “vipers” as two different animals.

Good job Edwin. It looks like you know your bible.
I guess I could have done a better job on #5. A serpent is used to show their cunningness (non-poisonous snake). A viper is used to show that they were also poisonous people. Same animals (snakes) but two different type.
