They both would be difficult to hunt down and slay, which again the verse say nothing about, in 3500 years ago. ââIt is the first of the great acts of Godâ only its Maker can approach it with the sword.âJOB 40:19 You seriously think a hippo or an elephant would be difficult to slay with a spear or a sword? Men are its maker?

No God is itâs maker you stupid fool. So then Iâm not getting how you think that verse has anything to do with what a man can do to a hippo.

The passage is basically saying this Behemoth is the largest animal God created(which rules out hippos, elephants and rhinos) and that he was difficult to kill. And at the time it was written it seemed only God could stop it. Go and pick up and read any renowned Christian commentary on it.

Well then youâre an idiot. Do you have any idea how a sword or spear works? Because I know how to fight with them both in an historical way. Taking out an Elephant or a Hippo with A spear or A sword is damn near impossible, that is why primitive man hunted in packs. Hell even in the middle ages with specially created spears it was dangerous to hunt boar. Oh god look who I am talking to, of course you dont have any idea. The ancient Egyptians were hunting and killing Hippos and elephants for fun. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunting,_fishing_and_animals_in_ancient_Egypt

They hunted in large groups and it was very dangerous.

Yes it is difficult to take down a Hippo or an Elephant with a spear or a sword, that is why historically the hunters hunted in packs.

If only God could take it on then slaying a hippo or elephant with a sword would be a walk in the park next to it.

Ok fair enough, compared to a fictional creature a real creature is far easier to kill.

Logic states it is a "purple people eater", which is why we don't have purple people any more. Even the Purple Gang is extinct.

Itâs entirely possible that itâs the largest animal in Uz. Thereâs no indication Job has been everywhere. On that note, itâs very difficult to take a conversation seriously when the person doesnât even know how strong hippos and elephants are. I get it. You think itâs a dinosaur but rather than verify that you automatically discount more logical conclusions.

Iâve got better things to do than argue with some contrarian little maggot who just likes to be awkward. What do you think it is? @codyâ˘

Hippos are actually very territorial and dangerous (they kill nearly 3000 people a year). I certainly would never want to approach one with a sword or spear.

Have a read of this article: answersingenesis.org/dinosaurs/could-behemoth-have-been-a-dinosaur/The question then, has to be asked.. How did the author in the scrolls ( near the Dead Sea containing the Book of Job found in the second century BC) know about what we know to day as 'dinosaurs'? www.bbc.com/earth/story/20150603-the-land-that-gave-us-dinosaursThe dinosaur was only identified in the 1840's by scientists and named then.

Do you think you can slay a hippo or an elephant with a spear or sword. Please say yes.
