Job 40:15 What is a behemoth?
What animal is it describing?
15 “Look now at the behemoth, which I made along with you;
He eats grass like an ox.
16 See now, his strength is in his hips,
And his power is in his stomach muscles.
17 He moves his tail like a cedar;
The sinews of his thighs are tightly knit.
18 His bones are like beams of bronze,
His ribs like bars of iron.
19 He is the first of the ways of God;
Only He who made him can bring near His sword.
20 Surely the mountains yield food for him,
And all the beasts of the field play there.
21 He lies under the lotus trees,
In a covert of reeds and marsh.
22 The lotus trees cover him with their shade;
The willows by the brook surround him.
23 Indeed the river may rage,
Yet he is not disturbed;
He is confident, though the Jordan gushes into his mouth,
24 Though he takes it in his eyes,
Or one pierces his nose with a snare.
It can't be a mythical creature, because God was comparing Job's power to that of behemoth's. If someone compared your personality with that of a fazzurky, it would mean nothing to you. Fazzurkies don't exist. It would seem ridiculous. We know God is never ridiculous, so behemoth obviously wasn't a mythical creature.
It can't be an elephant, because verse 17 says behemoth had a “tail like a cedar”. This is so far from a description of an elephant's tail that we can rule out the elephant on this phrase alone. Some thought the word for “tail” could mean “trunk”. But the Bible knocks down that argument in verse 24 when God asks who can trap behemoth and pierce his “nose”, which would be the elephant's trunk. So it's not an elephant.
It can't be a hippopotamus because, like the elephant, a hippo moves its tail like a piece of thick rope, not like a cedar tree. Also, hippos don't go up to the mountain fields to get their food (verse 20).
It could be a dinosaur, because huge dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus and Brachiosaurus had enormous tails that we might compare to the strength and thickness of a cedar. Some dinosaurs ate “grass like an ox” (verse 15) and dwelt in marshy reeds or fens (verses 21–23). They had strong bones (verse 18), strong hips, powerful stomach muscles (verse 16), and tightly knit sinews (verse 17).
Many evolutionist websites erroneously say that dinosaurs never ate grass, because grasses evolved after dinosaurs died out. So, they say, behemoth couldn't have been a brachiosaur. They are wrong. Even in the evolutionary long-age-of-the-earth theory, scientists have found dinosaur dung with grass in it (Science, 18 November 2005. See article at ABC science news, which says “In this case, the researchers believe the faeces were left by a large titanosaur, members of a group of long-necked, plant-eating dinosaurs known as sauropods, which included the familiar brachiosaurus.”)
