Word Origin & History
behemoth

late 14c., huge biblical beast (Job xl.15), from L. behemoth , from Heb. b'hemoth, usually taken as plural of intensity of b'hemah "beast." But the Heb. word is perhaps a folk etymology of Egyptian pehemau , lit. "water-ox," the name for the hippopotamus.
Online Etymology Dictionary, © 2010 Douglas Harper
Bible Dictionary

Behemoth definition

(Job 40:15-24). Some have supposed this to be an Egyptian word meaning a "water-ox." The Revised Version has here in the margin "hippopotamus," which is probably the correct rendering of the word. The word occurs frequently in Scripture, but, except here, always as a common name, and translated "beast" or "cattle." http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/behemoth

So we have the hippo and the whale - neither of which are dinosaurs.




MerryA, that's just what they want you to believe. When we walk in the darkness it's easy to be deceived. In the dark we've gotta go by our senses. But when we walk in the light we can penetrate the darkness and see what surrounds us. It makes it harder to be deceived.

Thank you aevory for bringing up the dinosaur/human track issue. It did not take long to do the research to find out those human tracks were actually dinosaur tracks.

They encountered fossils

They encountered the living breathing thing.


Jeremiah:51:34: Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me, he hath crushed me, he hath made me an empty vessel, he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicates, he hath cast me out.


Were there any dinosaurs big enough to swallow a man whole? You bet there were.

That's right. But where are the dragons? I think there may still be dragons among us today.


In the jungles of central Africa countries of Congo, Cameroon, and Gabon are reports of animal an animal with a long neck, a long tail, and rounded shape tracks with three claws. The closest known animal that has these characteristics is a sauropod dinosaur.

When some of the local people of the Likouala region would draw in the dirt or sand a representation of Mokele-mbembe they drew the shape of a sauropod dinosaur. Then when they were shown a picture of a sauropod dinosaur they said that picture is Mokele-mbembe.

Mokele-mbembe means "One that stops the flow of rivers." French priest in the region called it "monstrous animal."

Mokele-mbembe is also used as a generic term to refer to other animals like Emela-ntouka, Mbielu-mbielu-mbielu, and Nguma-monene.

I doubt if they are trying to generate tourism to that particular place in Africa. Espescially considering the claims that this beast has overturned boats and kiled people.

Of the many fantasies in the thread, one that is striking to me is ronnie claiming that dragons and dinosaurs are the same. What about unicorns and fairies and the cyclops? An imaginary creature and a factual one.

I love the King Aurthur legend as much as the next person - The Once and Future King is one of my favorites - but I know the difference between fiction and fact.

MerryA you just think you know! And Ghoti the creation of the earth and the local universe were only 6000 years old the bible mentions stars and other heavenly phenomena that may have always existed so that light would take more than 6000 years to reach us. Lucifer walked amongst the stones of fire, could this have been eternal universes farout? No body knows the stuff you guys are throwing around as fact! Yes those beasts designated dino's may still have a few cousins living on the earth these days.

This documentary may help. I just found it and I've watched the first ten minutes of it. It is intesting.

Enjoy.

Darkness does not cause us to be deceived, ignorance does. God said the light and the darkness were good. Folks like you tend to get confused because of the blinders you wear.

I am not deceived. I am not wearing blinders.

Jesus is the light of this world, the unsaved walk in darkness. the spiritual blind are in darkness. The unsaved will be cast into outer darkness for eternity. If God said the darkness was good it is only because He had a use for it. More MerryA ignorance of the truth or twisting it to make it fit her own views.

Paulwa, you just can't hold yourself back from disrespecting the beliefs of others, can you?

You guys are the head of disrespecting my belief. I could care less if you all worship the easter bunny or Pan as your god but if you spit out statements that put down the bible or weird views of the bible or the deity of Jesus Christ or the equatiing of God with allah or such, I will respond.If you don't like that then think before you speak. I will try to do likewise.

Allah means God. Same God you and I pray to.

Instead of making Islam out to be devil worship, why is it so hard for you to accept they believe a man who came after Jesus was the messenger of God? I am not Muslim and don't believe that but they do and that does not make them evil.

As far as disrespecting your belief - you started it!
