The first one refers to an elephant or hippo and the latter refers to a crocodile most likely. Thank you, I haven't laughed that hard in a while.

The first one refers to an elephant or hippo and the latter refers to a crocodile most likely. Thank you, I haven't laughed that hard in a while. Now it's my turn to laugh! Does an elephant or hippo "move its tail like a cedar tree" (Job 40:17)? Do crocodiles breathe out "burning lamps, sparks of fire, and smoke" (41:19-20)? Furthermore, look at some other characteristics of the second creature (called Leviathan): "Can you draw out Leviathan with a hook, or snare his tongue with a line which you lower? Can you put a reed through his nose, or pierce his jaw with a hook?" [Why wouldn't you be able to do this with a crocodile?]"Though the sword reaches him, it cannot avail; nor does spear, dart, or javelin" [Again, why couldn't you do this to a crocodile?]The descriptions of those creatures do not fit an elephant or a crocodile, and thus remain as evidence that dinosaur-like creatures lived during the same time as man.
