I see what you're saying, but I have this very generous interpretation of a vague passage in the bible that says otherwise.

I hear you. But i can probably find about 15 other vague references in the Bible that contradict this one. And each other.

I don't think their are any contradictions on the leviathan and it gets a whole chapter in job 41.

On the other hand, maybe the leviathan was a crocodile. Some scholars and translators think so.

I've heard that before. Maybe it was artistic language but they talk about smoke and fire coming from its mouth, not something crocodiles are know for.

Lol The leviathan and the behemoth mentions in Job were probably my favorite parts of the Bible growing up. When I was bored at church as a kid I would reread them from the pew Bible.
