Biblical Monsters: Leviathan, Behemoth and Ziz

In this video, we will look at three colossal biblical monsters: Leviathan, the ruler of the sea; Behemoth, the lord of the land; and Ziz, the king of birds. Together, they represent the chaotic natural forces of earth.
While some believe that these beasts are based on myths found in ancient Near Eastern religions, others speculate that they could be based on large animals that have gone extinct, or ancient sightings of dinosaur fossils!

    3:37 1) 'Like a cedar' decribes the word 'sways' (in your selected translation) it's an adverb, not an adjective. 2) The word translated as 'tail' is a loan word into Hebrew which while literally means 'tail' in the language of origins is used as euphemism for the male appendage, and is thus more likely used the same way in Hebrew.

    Okay, maybe you can help me out. I was visiting my mother, who lives in the woods, and had a crazy dream. I was at war, a super soldier fighting, I think Russians in the frozen lands of Russia. My camp gets raided at night during a snow storm, and I somehow ended up escaping. On my way out, a little white pup kept barking at me so I had to grab it, cover its mouth so it doesn't give away my position while I sneak away and take it with me. The damn thing bit me so I let go of its mouth and it starts barking again sending the enemy to my location. I ended up dropping the dog and running but the thing kept following me and I had to kill the thing with my bare hands. I kept running for what seemed like hours until I came upon a random stone building in the snowy forest. As soon as I see this building with a huge, 40' open entrance and giant pillars, I hear movement all around me. Thinking it's the enemy, I run into this building. There were some windows in this one room 60' tall stone building. Through those windows, I see flashes of grey streaking across the openings. I was surrounded by a bunch of, looked like dire wolves. I had my back turned to the entrance when I felt like something was looking at me. I felt a heavy pressure, turned around and fell to a single knee as soon as I looked upon a giant glowing white wolf walking through the entrance of the building. It stood about half of the height of the entrance so around 20' tall. This giant glowing white wolf that brought me to a knee just walked to the right interior side of the doorway and sat there. About 2 seconds later, a pressure many times stronger hit me so hard I fell to both knees and my hands hit the floor. I felt so heavy I could barely hold my head up so I let it stay down because of the strain. It was already hard enough to stay on all 4's. A light started to light up the inside of the building, coming from the entrance. I ended up straining myself to look up and locked eyes with a 50' tall golden wolf with a mane that looks like it's on fire and shining like the sun. It was so tall it had to slightly crouch to enter the building. It walked right up to me and stopped. I couldn't look straight up because the pressure and I couldn't lift even a hand off the ground. It seemed like it was going to say something to me, but then my mom woke me up... do you think you might be able to help me find out who visited me in my dream?

    @caolanochearnaigh9804 The weird thing was, I didn't feel any fear. It didn't feel like it was there to harm me, but more curious than anything. I felt more like a calming peace, like when you've been shoveling show all day in a blizzard and you come inside with a hot cup of tea and warm blanket waiting for you. At first, I thought that maybe that white dog thing could have been related to the others and still could have honestly. IDK, the heat giving off the Wolf wasn't a hot anger hear but a warming hug heat. It's hard to explain, sorry. It's one of those things that you can really only understand once you experience it.
