RE: The Seven-Day Universe - Part 3: Physical Evidence for a Young Earth
The most comprehensive description of what I believe were dinosaurs can be found in the book of Job, chapters 40 and 41. Please read those descriptions, and let me know what you think? :D
And you are always welcome! ;)
I'm not sure what to think to be honest @creatr.
Certainly Job 40 and 41 seem to be describing some form of creature created by God but whether it is a reference to a dinosaur or not isn't clear. Reading just these two passages I would be more inclined to say that what is being described and referred to as Behemoth or Levaithan is in fact what we have come to know as a dragon.
I understand that there is the school of thought that historical and mythological references to dragons could and perhaps are in fact all descriptions of dinosaurs before the term dinosaur was introduced in the mid 1800s but the description in Job 40 and 41 seems to be referring to a specific beast rather than a species. Not all dinosaurs can be described in the terms used by God to convey His message to Job so it would appear that He was describing one creature in particular.
It adds more confusion to an already confused mind. :)
Thanks for your time as always my friend!
It is always a pleasure to speak with you!
While I haven't studied this in detail, I get the sense that Leviathan and Behemoth are two different creatures... Both large and awe-inspiring. ;)
