Why Aren't The Dinosaurs Mentioned In The Bible? When did God create them?

Answer 1

The monster description is nice but where are the bones of the Giant humans that walked the earth. The Bible clearly is not a history book. It needs to be taken as a fun assortment of good quotes and not as the word of some divine being.

Answer 2

The animal they talk about in Job could have been any large animal, dragons? Are the Christians aware that Satan is mentioned in the bible as a talking dragon?

The Bible vividly describes him as a talking dragon: "Behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth.... And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.... And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name" (Rev. 12:3,4,9; 13:6).


Christians believe that dinosaurs coexisted with humans. Is that faith, or is it really ignorance?

Answer 3

Evolution denying wackjobs mention Job, but the animal described there could be any large animal. They are also fond of bringing up a sea monster called Leviathan and a fire-breathing dragon who also were mentioned at some point. These were not always taken as being references to dinosaurs, and I have good reason to think that the belief they were was in response to one of Bill Hicks' comedy routines.

Answer 4

Who says it doesn't mention dinosaurs?

Job 40:15- 19 (Does that sound like something the size of just an elephant or hippo to you? More like a brontosaurus!)

15 "Look at the behemoth,
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 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.

Tail like a cedar, bones like tubes of bronze? No common animal that I can think of... note verse 19 as well.

Answer 5

If U read Genesis 1:20-21 It says"And God said.Let the water bring forth abundantly the moving crerature that hath life,and fowl that may fly above the Earth in the openly firmament(1st Heaven)of Heaven.21:And God created Great Whales, and every living creature that moveth,which the waters brought forth abundantly,after their kind,and every winged fowl after his kind and God saw that it was good.
So this clearly reffers to the Dinosaurs.

Answer 6

Actually my dear they are mentioned in the Bible.

As two people have already pointed out, Job chapter 40 describes a couple of them. Or is it Job chapter 40 and 41?

Anyway, in the KJV the word used was "Dragon".

So if you use your concordance, you'll find lots of references to them.

The English word Dinosauer was not invented til the 1800's.

It means the same thing as the word, "Dragon" used in the KJV.

Answer 8

How experienced do you think they were at archeology back then? To find your answer look up the dinosaur ages and then look up the beginning of Christ.

Answer 9

Stop trying. Leave it to the professional atheists.

Answer 10

I think that the dinosaurs were Satan's idea of the way the earth should be .......things eating things ..... on a bigger scale than now .............. all that is to change when Jesus comes back and is in charge.
