or in other words, the Serpent was a man, also. and it raises so many questions about the semantics of the word Lord. i've read through most of genesis recently, and it was obvious to me straight away that Lord is a title, you already know that there is several variants in the common understanding, but it's the leader of a group of angels.

and i just explained what angels are.

also, it's my firm opinion that Jesus was an angel, and his whole process was part of his coronation, as his father was the king of the angels. this is also why it says at the end of revelation "i am the bright and morning star" which means the king of the angels, THE archangel, above all others, and actually what the whole Jesus thing about was succession of the monarchy of the angels.
