Description
Ancient man has left to the modern scientist a rich and detailed account of the one-time existence of gigantic reptilian beasts called dragons. Yet one of the greatest mysteries confronting researchers today is the source of these dragon myths. This book solves the mystery by digging for dinosaurs, not within the fossilized layers of earth, but within the mythological literature of the past, and within the pages of the Bible, the oldest collection of books on earth. In the ancient Biblical Book of Job, fifty-eight consecutive verses are employed in describing two magnificent draconian creatures called the "Behemoth" and the "Leviathan." More time, in fact, is spent discussing them than any other animals within Scripture. But why are they found here within a religious document? And why in a Book that some claims to be faithful to history and wholly devoid of mythology? Were the dragons of Job mythical creatures, or literal dinosaurs? This book takes the reader back in time by analysing the text in the ancient Hebrew language with which it was written, more than 3,500 years ago. Lavishly illustrated with photographs of 3-dimensional dinosaurs by internationally acclaimed dinosaur sculptor John Fischner, and extensively supported with the very latest scientific information on dinosaurs, the conclusions are surprising. "Behold the Behemoth" is guaranteed to give the reader a new respect for dinosaurs as creatures just as important to earth history as human beings themselves.
