Hastings Dictionary of the Bible · 1898

SERPENT, FIERY FLY'ING. Isa 14:29; Ex 30:6. This creature has no connection with the preceding. The phrase may be a figurative expression for the swiftly-darting sand-serpents of Eastern deserts, or a mere poetic expression, like the entirely fabulous dragon or winged serpent of modern literature.
