The Big Leviathan, 3D Illustration Stock Photo

Leviathan Hebrew `the writhing` is the name of a sea monster of Judeo-Christian mythology. Its description includes traits of a crocodile, a dragon, a snake and a whale.According to the Bible, God shaped Leviathan to `play` with him one translation. According to the Avoda Zara chapter of the Babylonian Talmud, God used to do this in the last three hours of the day after he studied the Torah, judged the world, and nurtured the world. This theologically illustrates the power and sovereignty of the biblical God, for whom the frightening nature of ancient Oriental mythology is a powerless toy.According to other translations of the Bible, God does not play with the Leviathan, but rather in the sea or with the ships.
