    What language did they
    speak?

    The Bible doesn't say. It was probably ancient Hebrew.


    The authorised inspired scripture is clear.
    Every one spoke Elizabethian english during Creation
    week until teh tower of Babel.

    Please show me.

    Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven
    and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and
    void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And
    the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

    See? Its all written in elizabetan english. Thats the
    Authorized version of the Bible as inspired by God.

    The original Scriptures were inspired of God (2 Tim 3:16), and would
    have been perfect. But all we have today is copies of copies of the
    original. None of the original has been found yet. Not all Bible
    scholars have the same translation knowledge.

    As for the KJV, its not perfect either. Bible scholars have learned a
    lot since the KJV was translated in the early 1600's. Here is an
    example of one of their errors.

    -- King James
    Acts 12:4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and
    delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending
    after Easter to bring him forth to the people.

    Users of that Bible believe the Easter celebration is in the Bible,
    Actually, it is not. What should have read "passover" was translated
    "Easter." That is not the Greek word found there. That Greek word is
    pascha. Look it up in any other translation and you will see
    "passover".

    For example the popular New KJV Bible:

    "So when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered
    him to four squads of soldiers to keep him, intending to bring him
    before the people after Passover." (NKJV)

    But there one one massive translation error that most all translations
    do. And each translation does it nearly 7000 times.

    More on that if you are interested.

    Did the talking snake speak the same language

    If that was the only language existing at the time, it (Satan)
    probably did.

    Lucifer is wiley enough to take a babelfish course in
    a week.




    and how did they
    all learn to speak it in the first place? Just curious

    When God created Adam and Eve, he also gave them a fluent language so
    they could communicate.



    At least that is my two-cents worth.
