1) leviathan, sea monster, dragon

1a) large aquatic animal

1b) perhaps the extinct dinosaur, plesiosaurus, exact meaning unknown

• Some think this to be a crocodile but from the description in #Job 41:1-34 this is patently absurd. It appears to be a large fire breathing animal of some sort. Just as the bombardier beetle has an explosion producing mechanism, so the great sea dragon may have an explosive producing mechanism to enable it to be a real fire breathing dragon.
