Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian.
Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.

Think of some problems or challenges Leviathan or an alligator might have. As you go through the Power Point, jot down some adaptations that God
gave these creatures to solve the problems.

A croc's tongue doesn't move—it's attached to the bottom of its mouth.
1Can you pull in the leviathan with a fishhook
or tie down his tongue with a rope? 2 Can you put a cord through his nose or pierce his jaw with a hook?
![Page 5: What is Leviathan? Job 41& science in harmony. Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian. Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e245503460f94b12ecc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
All the species of alligators, caimans, crocodiles, and
gharial together are known as “crocodilians.”
They belong to the order Crocodylia
Will he keep begging you for mercy? Will he speak to you with gentle words? 4 Will he make an agreement with you for you to take him as your slave for life?
![Page 6: What is Leviathan? Job 41& science in harmony. Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian. Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e245503460f94b12ecc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The mama croc will guard the eggs from predators that might try to dig them up and
eat them. Once they hatch the mom
carries them in her mouth to the water.
5 Can you make a pet of him like a bird or put him on a leash for your girls?
Some crocodilians make nests like birds but on the ground; others dig a hole in the sandy beach to lay their leathery eggs.

The female guards them for about a year, attacking
predators that come close. She may let them ride on her back and some species call their hatchlings to swim into their mouths for protection.
It looks like she swallowed them but they are actually
protected!

The babies use a short little tooth on the end of their snouts called
an “egg tooth” to break out.
When the babies are ready to hatch, they grunt or bark from inside the egg. Some mothers will help by gently biting the egg to open it.

Many species have been hunted for their skins to
make shoes and luggage. Others are endangered
because of loss of habitat.
6 Will traders barter for him? Will they divide him up among the merchants?

Crocodilians, like reptiles in general, keep growing all their
lives.
![Page 11: What is Leviathan? Job 41& science in harmony. Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian. Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e245503460f94b12ecc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Any hope of subduing him is false; the mere sight of him is overpowering.
10 No one is fierce enough to rouse him.
7 Can you fill his hide with harpoons or his head with fishing spears?
8 If you lay a hand on him, you will remember the struggle and never do it again!
![Page 12: What is Leviathan? Job 41& science in harmony. Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian. Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e245503460f94b12ecc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Because God created them with powerful senses they are excellent hunters. Crocs have
keen hearing and vertical pupils give them good night vision.
![Page 13: What is Leviathan? Job 41& science in harmony. Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian. Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e245503460f94b12ecc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
As you read, determine which senses help the crocodile and how. Compare to another
creature with a Venn Diagram.
![Page 14: What is Leviathan? Job 41& science in harmony. Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian. Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e245503460f94b12ecc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
God placed their eyes on top of their heads so they can see well as they
cruise the water
Crocodilians have slits on their heads that can close to cover their keen ears when they dive.
![Page 15: What is Leviathan? Job 41& science in harmony. Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian. Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e245503460f94b12ecc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Crocodilians can swim up to 20 miles per hour and on
land they can move as fast as 11 miles per hour with
their muscular legs.
They can only move short distances on land before
they tire.
12 I will not fail to speak of his limbs, his strength and his graceful form.

The tail is half the animal's length and can be used as a weapon. It stores fat that the reptile will use for nourishment during the
winter.

Quick write
13 Who can strip off his outer coat? Who would approach him with a bridle?
Imagine someone trying to put a bridle on a crocodilian and ride it. Who is doing this? Where? Why? How did the story resolve?
Write the story in 1-2 paragraphs.

Crocs have 66 teeth but don't chew their food. They either swallow prey whole or tear off large
pieces.
14 Who dares open the doors of his mouth ringed about with his fearsome teeth?
![Page 20: What is Leviathan? Job 41& science in harmony. Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian. Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e245503460f94b12ecc/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
God gave crocs special organs in their snouts to give them a great sense of
smell.
Some croc species can eat up to half their body weight in one meal. They will juggle the food around to get food in the right position, toss their heads back and
let the food fall down their throats.
![Page 21: What is Leviathan? Job 41& science in harmony. Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian. Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e245503460f94b12ecc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
His back has rows of shields tightly sealed together; 16 each is so close to the next that no air can pass between. 17 They are joined fast to one another; they cling together and cannot be parted.
Using a Venn Diagram,
compare and contrast the
scientific description with the poetic one.

26 The sword that reaches him has no effect,
nor does the spear or the dart or the javelin.
27 Iron he treats like straw and bronze like rotten
wood. 28 Arrows do not make him
flee; sling stones are like
chaff to him. 29 A club seems to him but a
piece of straw; he laughs at the rattling
of the lance.

Crocodiles swim very well, propelling themselves
through the water with their tails and webbed feet.
32 Behind him he leaves a glistening wake; one would think the deep had white hair. 33 Nothing on earth is his equal— a creature without fear. 34 He looks down on all that are haughty; he is king over all that are proud."

Psalms 104
25 There is the sea, vast and spacious, teeming with creatures beyond number— living things both large and small. 26 There the ships go to and fro, and the leviathan, which you formed to frolic there.
Salt water crocodile habitat

18 His snorting throws out flashes of light; his eyes are like the rays of dawn.
Or could Leviathan be a Bombardier Beetle?
The bombardier beetle, found mainly in Africa and Asia, can fire a powerful jet of hot, toxic fluid to fight off predators such as birds and frogs. The venomous squirt can travel as far as 20cm.
![Page 32: What is Leviathan? Job 41& science in harmony. Some people think Leviathan was a crocodilian. Let’s investigate and consider this possibility.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e245503460f94b12ecc/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
19 Firebrands stream from his mouth; sparks of fire shoot out.
Quantities of hydroquinone and hydrogen peroxide gases build up in the beetle’s abdomen
and produce the toxic benzoquinone. This hot fluid is then fired off in the face of enemy.

20 Smoke pours from his nostrils
as from a boiling pot over a fire of reeds.
21 His breath sets coals ablaze,
and flames dart from his mouth.
