"Job 40:18 His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron."

Who said they were hollow?

language was never a strong point, but even I can recognize a simile.

Job 40:18 says that Behemoth's "bones are tubes of bronze."

I was responding to this quote. "Tubes of bronze" read literally would imply that there is a creature with hollow bones made from a copper/tin alloy.
