My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge: Hosea 4:6.

This is the official ping list for Depths of Pentecost: I’m a Christian blogger who writes weekly Bible lessons. Topics range from Bible studies, apologetics, theology, history, and occasionally current events. Every now and then I upload sermons or classes onto YouTube.

Let me know if you’d like to added to the Depths of Pentecost ping list. New posts are up every Saturday.

Then in chapter 40, he uses the Behemoth as a symbolic summary to demonstrate that He rules over what man cannot tame.

Are you serious? How can describing creating and ruling over mythical beasts demonstrate God's power and wisdom? Might as well argue "Behold now the Centaur, which I made with thee..." And since this sppdly mythical beast was made with Job, you might as well go all the way and argue that Job was mythical.

Young Earth Creationists speculate that Behemoth was a sauropod (a long-necked dinosaur such as Brachiosaurus or Apatosaurus).

You mean some YECs, may be, as citation needed, while others argue simply for large animal (see https://creation.com/could-behemoth-have-been-a-dinosaur).

Let’s look at verse 16 in its entirety: He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. The very peculiar verb move actually indicates “to extend;”

Another misleading argument, for many words have shades of meaning, and extend is guesswork. Here is a extended discussion on it.

Atomic bombs aren’t in the Bible either. That doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
