His tail is a big as a tree. He has incredible strength and power. If his tail is as big as a tree, imagine how big he is. This rules out the Elephant, Hippo, and Crocodile, as some try to say these verses are describing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He is also &#8220;chief of the ways of God&#8221;, and &#8220;is not afraid of a rushing river&#8221;. That also rules out pretty much everything other than a dinosaur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we just use our common sense while reading scripture, this is obviously talking about a dinosaur. One of the first of the works of God, and large enough to not be afraid of a rushing river &#8211; an impressive animal indeed. And a plant eater. It&#8217;s obviously a Sauropod of some sort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having dinosaurs around at the same time with humans also completely invalidates the theory of evolution and the supposed millions of years of the age of the earth, and speaks to a literal 6-day creation, along with the Earth being only about 6000 years old or so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thetimeisnear.com\/?page_id=545\">Additional Study<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, they actually are.
