It even breathed fire. Though it did apparently hang out in water at least part of the time.

- limbs (not fins)
- scales
- fiery breath
- neck
- crawls through the mud
- also leaves a wake

No mention of wings or flying though

I think it's funny when the annotations say Behemoth was "possibly a hippopotamus" and Leviathan was "possibly a crocodile"

Like, if we take their descriptions literally they're clearly a (giant sauropod) dinosaur and a dragon

And scholars/text critics are always like "dude Job is poetry and is not in any way a literal account of a real person". And I'm like, "bro why do you hate cool things"

A hippo doesn't have anywhere near a big enough tail, lol.

Plus, even in poetry you wouldn't give direct quotes from God unless he literally said them. Well, I mean you could but you're not gonna make the cut to get into the Bible. :P
