Job 40:15-24 ESV / 37 helpful votes

“Behold, Behemoth, which I made as I made you; he eats grass like an ox. Behold, his strength in his loins, and his power in the muscles of his belly. He makes his tail stiff like a cedar; the sinews of his thighs are knit together. His bones are tubes of bronze, his limbs like bars of iron. “He is the first of the works of God; let him who made him bring near his sword! ...

Without even getting into the authenticity of religion they are completely different time periods, use an educated argument next time.

Billy Alford, why are you bringing up a bible verse about a Hippopotamus? .... Hippos aren't dinosaurs

Snotty, what makes you think the verse refers to hippos? Do hippos have a tail like a cedar?
2_second_thinker, you asked where dinosaurs fit into the biblical narrative. Now that it's been answered you change direction and challenge the timeline. And if you question the authenticity of religion then what difference does it make where dinosaurs fit in? Why ask anyone to clarify any part of the Bible if you don't think it's authentic? Try thinking for more than 2 seconds.

Ive been a big believer that the 7 days of creation isn't really 24 hour days. These days could be millions, billion, or trillions of days long according to our definition of time.

Take for instance when God made adam. Adam named all the animals, explored the garden, and got bored in one day? Then was put to sleep, eve created, then he showed her all the animals, explored the garden, grew bored and ate the apple?

No they could have lived in the garden for a billion years. The garden was paradise. The rest of the world was normal. Who is to say whole species rose and died out while they lived happily in the garden. Protected from harm.

So where is the dino's. Any time during that time. No one knows for sure. And anyone who definitely says yes or no, then they are fools. Yes that description from job is a dino. No animal other than dinos have strong tales like that, and bones stronger than Iron. Rhino bone is as strong as teated hardwood. Not iron.

Behemoth and Leviathan are mentioned...and the descriptions could well be that of Dinosaurs? Also in the Jonah account it says "fish"...not specifically whale?

Why do people say "apple" when talking about Adam? Apples aren't mentioned at all in that passage?
