Re: origin of Ophelia
in reply to a message by Laura
Serpent (Greek: ὄφις; Trans: Ophis, /o'-fēs/; "snake", "serpent") occurs in the Book of Revelation as the "ancient serpent" or "old serpent" used to describe "the dragon", Satan the Adversary, who is the devil. From google. I think they just sound similar. I think Ophelos is more similar to Ophelia than Ophis.
