Fabio, I am glad this discussion is continuing because I missed your last remark. The judges comment refers to the Ehud's Dagger image... :)
Regarding tubal-cain...it is interestint to me if you look at tubal-cain in a bibilical perspective the sort of strange implications of that segment - cain was cursed and the curse carried on through his generations (think of Lamech) and yet - his line is the one that developed all the arts and basics of civilization:
19 And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
20 And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of such as have cattle.
21 And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ.
22 And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructer of every artificer in brass and iron: and the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah. (Genesis 4)
- an interesting side-effect of being cursed...Yet the O.T. is filled with bizzare blessings to those who are cursed...for that matter - you read the geneology of Jesus you have whores, philanderers, people who murder, people who attempt to murder there brother, women who entrap their father-in-laws...it is much more complicated than one would imagine...
The saintly ones such as Joseph aren't the one's who lead to Jesus - it is the ones who really screw up - such as Judas...I've read arguements that Joseph's only purpose was to maintain the line - which makes one wonder about oddities in history who achieve one moment of brilliant greatness but are losers and failures the rest of the time...

Judges 3 starting at verse fourteen. He was one of God's judges appointed to judge Israel. Judges is a very violent book of the Bible.

I wanted to say - I wondered if anyone would get my reference and I figured if anyone would it would be you (I am waiting for Rhonda too - she might get it).

I've heard most associations with snakes are hardly positive but in the case of your 'tree snake' I would have to disagree.

And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
And perhaps when it was said and done - Eden wasn't barred to us forever, it was petrified and here is the tree and the snake and perhaps one day science will revive the fruit. ;)
and some people's eyes are incredible...
