The Bible's going to describe a really powerful and strong creature here,
and it calls him behemoth.
Past, there were a lot of opinions, what is this creature?
And if you find commentary from hundreds of years ago,
they have a lot of different opinions on what this animal was.
So Matthew Henry, as he's reading Job 40, he's like,
you know what, I gotta write commentary on this, what is this creature?
And he walks away and he says, it's possible it's a bull,
it's possible it's a hippopotamus, and it's possible most likely it's an elephant.
If you're reading this in Job 40, you can clearly tell this is not an elephant.
Say, well, how do you know that, pastor?
Verse 17, he moveth his tail like a cedar.
It doesn't fit by saying he moveth his tail like a cedar,
and it doesn't fit with the hippopotamus either.
In fact, you look at tales of creatures, by and large, all of them are pretty weak and puny.
But what is one big exception?
Can you think of an animal that had a really massive tail like a cedar?
You ever seen a picture of a dinosaur before?
I mean, it is like a cedar.
