Is there anywhere in the christian bible that mentions dinosaurs?

Answer 1

Yes, Book of Job Chapter 40 in the Old Testament


15 "Look at the behemoth, [a]
which I made along with you
and which feeds on grass like an ox.

16 What strength he has in his loins,
what power in the muscles of his belly!

17 His tail [b] sways like a cedar;
the sinews of his thighs are close-knit.

18 His bones are tubes of bronze,
his limbs like rods of iron.

19 He ranks first among the works of God,
yet his Maker can approach him with his sword.

20 The hills bring him their produce,
and all the wild animals play nearby.

21 Under the lotus plants he lies,
hidden among the reeds in the marsh.

22 The lotuses conceal him in their shadow;
the poplars by the stream surround him.

23 When the river rages, he is not alarmed;
he is secure, though the Jordan should surge against his mouth.

Answer 2

Not really. I'm sure people will post things about giant lizards, but there's not a lot of evidence that anyone knew about the dinosaurs until about a hundred and fifty or so years ago. And there's certainly no evidence that humans lived at the same time - the last split with the common ancestor for humans was 7 million years ago, and dinos died out about 60 million years ago.

But don't let that bother you. After all, your computer, cell phone, and internet connection aren't mentioned in the bible either, are they? And yet they exist. We've found out a lot of new, cool stuff in the last 2000 years. Pity to throw it all away over a book.

Answer 3

Yes, Job mentions the Behemoth (Ch 40) and Leviathan (Ch 41). Some suggest they were talking about hippos and crocs, but the Hebrew already had words for these animals. If you are interested in dinosaurs and the Bible and creation I would highly recommend this web site.

There are photos and movies that are of great interest. On this page click on one of the icons in the grey box in the middle of the screen. The movies are a little poor in picture quality, but sound is still good. Let me know if you have anymore questions.

Answer 4

the christian bible would be Matt to Revelation so Revelation speaks of a great dragon this could be the only instance of it in the christian bible so the reader would associate a great dragon with early dinosaurs maybe but gen 1:21 does say great sea monsters and leviticus 11:29 does say lizard or sauros

Answer 5

relies upon on the Christian. I clarify it like this: interior the start, God created the heavens and the Earth. with the help of the years, with God's coaching, many species advanced and later became extinct. After many tens of millions of years, mankind ultimately advanced from an ape-like ancestor. and on the grounds that the dinosaurs were extinct some time previous, mankind became the dominant species. They were able to create guns to slay all forms of animals. Even effective animals like the lion, the tiger, the elephant, the alligator, and the crocodile couldn't survive even as one in each and every of guy's arrows or spears pierced his body. thousands of thousands of years later, we all started searching the fossils of those distinct species. and persons all started asking the position they in nice condition into creation. the answer is elementary: God created, then allowed to adapt. The dinosaurs were only one step. this is my concept, besides. some Christians ought to disagree.

Answer 6

Good Question NO! Dinosaurs existed before the bible era people seem to forget that the the bible "Story" is re-plenishing of the earth and the homoerectus that live at that time was replace with homosapiens or simply Adam "Let us make man in our image and our likeness" God and the his angels added there DNA to homoerectus that gave this newly form being a soul and intelligence before that this being was on a evolultion course this is your so-called missing link!

Answer 7

JOB 40:15 "Look at the behemoth, (THIS ANIMAL IS BELIEVED TO BE A DINOSAUR)
which I made along with you
and which feeds on grass like an ox.

JOB 40:16 What strength he has in his loins,
what power in the muscles of his belly!

JOB 40:17 His tail sways like a cedar;
the sinews of his thighs are close-knit.

JOB 40:18 His bones are tubes of bronze,
his limbs like rods of iron.

Answer 8

There are 3 heaven and earth ages, same heaven and earth but different ages.

II Pet.3:5-7 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
……………………………………….
THE WORLD THAT THEN WAS
Gen.1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

To that earth age the world that then was, belongs all fossils and remains. Scientific estimates or guesses; universe or heavens 20 billion years old, earth 4.6 billion years old, moon 200 to 300 million years younger than earth, dinosaur extinction 65 million years ago, Ice Age 2.5 million years ago.
………………………………………………………………
BEING OVERFLOWED WITH WATER PERISHED
Gen.1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.

AND THE EARTH WAS
The word “was” (hayah) in Hebrew, was not distinguished by the Revisers, that is the verb “to be” from “to become”. The same Hebrew word “hayah” is translated “became” in Gen.2:7.
AND THE EARTH BECAME

WITHOUT FORM H8414 tohu (to'-hoo) From an unused root meaning to lie waste; a desolation (of surface), that is, desert; figuratively a worthless thing; adverbially in vain: - confusion, empty place, without form, nothing, (thing of) nought, vain, vanity, waste, wilderness.

VOID H922 bohu (bo'-hoo) From an unused root (meaning to be empty); a vacuity, that is, (superficially) an undistinguishable ruin: - emptiness, void.
AND THE EARTH BECAME DESOLATE AND EMPTY
Earth was not created that way but became desolate and empty due to Satan’s rebellion. A global overflowing of water, but not Noah’s deluge. Darkness was upon the (face) of the deep, in other words the whole earth.
Into this we can read; dinosaur extinction, destruction of Atlantis, breakup of Gondwana Land, and the Ice Age.
………………………………………………………………………...
BUT THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH WHICH ARE NOW
Gen.1:2 And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Gen.1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

About 63 A.D. Peter writes, the heavens and the earth which are now. The heaven and earth age we are in now, today.
BY THE SAME WORD ARE KEPT IN STORE
RESERVED UNTO FIRE
AGAINST THE DAY OF JUDGMENT
AND PERDITION OF UNGODLY MEN
PERDITION G684 apoleia (ap-o'-li-a) From a presumed derivative of G622; ruin or loss (physical, spiritual or eternal): - damnable (-nation), destruction, die, perdition, X perish, pernicious ways, waste.
Some will perish eternally and not see the third heaven and earth age.

Answer 9

Job 40 mentions a leviathon and a behemoth. Both are believed to be dinosaurs. The leviathon's tale is described as being like a tree. So yes.

Answer 10

No. The authors of the Bible had no idea about dinosaurs. Neither did anybody else for hundreds of years after the Bible was written.
