So the Science Master hasn't finished with Job,
hey?
Now He points out the behemoth to Job.
Behemoth??
Never heard of it!
Maybe not but ask the kids to name an animal that
ate grass, had huge muscles, with bones like metal beams and bars, and a tail
the size of a cedar tree...straightaway they'll tell you it’s got to be the Brachiosaurus.
The first specimen was discovered by Elmer S.
Riggs beside the Colorado River in 1900 and was probably not full size. It
seems like they grew to about 26 metres long and weighed up to 45 tonnes. Other
Sauropods were even larger: the Seismosaurus was about 40 metres long
and weighed about 77 tonnes.
You think that would be a challenge?... what about the livyathan!
The leviathan
was apparently a huge rough-scaled sea-dragon that even breathed fire. Try to
catch one and you'd never try again!
Mmm...not the sort of pet you'd take home for
your kids to play with. We began this safari with lions but it looks like this
dragon was the king of the beasts.
So there’s two species
in the Bible for palaeontologists to study. Sir Richard Owen coined a name for this new find in 1842 – dinosauria: terrible lizard….but here
they were in the Holy Bible of Science all along. Some scientists claim that
dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago but the Master Scientist tells Job: “I
made with thee”…what do you know…dinosaurs created on the same day as Man!
No wonder they are
finding dinosaur haemoglobin, blood vessels still elastic, collagen,
osteocalcin, and even skin…all remarkably preserved.
