Answer:
The category this question falls into is 'Old Testament' of the Bible and not some lost mythology of mankind. As such, the Creation story in Genesis is fully present.
With the above set, let's look at the verses noted: "Behold now behemoth, which I (God) made WITH thee;" get that, living in the reign of man. Continuing we read that this creature had a 'tail like a cedar' or very large tree - a comparison to other creatures no doubt. "He (behomoth) is the chief of the ways of God (the big land creature): He that made him can make His sword to approach unto him." This creature is so large that no man at that time could hope to kill behomoth, only God could. An awesome animal.
So this animal was a tremendous creature with a very large tail that lived in the waters of the Jordan having a very large mouth as the NIV states, "If a river rages, he is not alarmed; He is confident, though the Jordan rushes to his mouth." Any Pre-Adamic, young creationist theory does not fit here as 'sauropods' had tiny mouths and drank in a sucking manner through a straw. Further, Job states Behemoth ate grass. Most Geologist today would note that grasses are only foundafter the 'Cretaceous' period when dinosaurs roamed but are specifically mentioned in the Creation story of Genesis 1:11-12. As there are no fossil records with human bones being found with dinosaurs, behemoth cannot be a dinosaur.
So what was behomoth (Hebrew for 4 legged beast)or was Job just making up a story to illustrate a point?Well so far we have shown that he wasn't a dino.
The Fossil record does show a creature with massive bones classified as an unknown type of rhino. In 1910, a British scientist discovered such a creature and named it 'Baluchitherium,' meaning beast of 'Baluchistan'after the province in Iran where the bones were found. Note here, this area of Israel to Iran to Saudi Arabia to Egypt is generally the area of the origins of man in The Bible and not Africa where scientist now claim was the starting place. In 2003, a French team of scientists returns to the area and found COMPLETE remains of many male & femail baluchitherium just lying on the ground suggesting that these massive creatures were swept away by a river flooding, accumulating on its banks.
The dimensions of the fossil indicated that this animal had a head that was 5 foot long with a gaping mouth fitting its body size proportionally. They estimated that it stood 18 feet tall at the shoulder and 26 feet tall at its neck. From the tip of its nose to the rump, it was 30 feet long. This is equivalent to about 3 of todays African Elephants. It had a large 8 foot long tail like the cedar description of Job. Quite a behemoth!!
The Illustrated Library of the Natural Sciences, Volume 2 says this is the largest land mammal to ever existed and 'represents about the maximum size to which a land-living mammal can develop.
Last point in support of this animal, Job never mentions any 'horns' in his account and the fossil record doesn't show any being found. So far, in man's search for answers, this fossil evidence is the best candidate for the 'behemoth' thus discovered :)
The largest known animal of all time is still living today: the blue whale.
Job 40:15–24 describes Behemoth and the sea-monster Leviathan, to demonstrate to Job the futility of questioning God, who alone has created these beings and who alone can capture them. They are chaos monsters destroyed by the deity at the time of creation.If Behemoth and Leviathan are not synonyms for the same chaos monster, then Behemoth is probably the Jewish reworking of the Canaanite chaos monster Atik.
I think its a tortoise. I have heard of tortoises living for nearly 200 years..
in the time it has been since you asked that, several dozen species have gone extinct.
It would have to be an alligator because they survived under the ice when everything happened . They probaly didnt even know what was happening because they were under all the at that time. They are lucky they survived !
The horse shoe crab changed very little over time. They are now known as living fossils.
It depends on the type of animal horn, and the time of year. In some animals the horn is a hard projection with a core of living bone, and thus there is blood in it. In other animals, such as the Rhino, the horn is a mass of keratin, and has no living core, and so contains no blood.

use strong thunder moves --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- no, thunder gives him health. If it is Final Fantasy XIII-2 then here's what you do: pargiam shifts: med, sen, com sarah, level 99 med, Noel, level 99 sen, and Behemoth around level 30+ med, com, com sarah level 99 med, Noel level 99 com, Behemoth around level 30+ the battle should take about 35 minutes or so. I would recomend just staying on the first paragiam I said, the entire time. the behemoth alone should kill him. While Sarah heals Noel and the Behemoth.....and occasionally her self, the Behemoth should kill Odin. Also, take into battle with you about 50+ potions. You'll need them occasionally. Hope this helped, please tell me if it was helpful or not. :) -Samally78
If you are talking about Fang's Eidolin 'Behemoth', then here's my version that worked cause the official guide didn't work for me. You only need 2 paradigms for my version: Relentless Assault Fang = Commando Lightning = Ravager Vanille: Ravager Combat Clinic Fang: Sentinel Lightning: Medic Vanile: Medic Start with combat clinic. Behemoth has powerful attacks with only a short break for you to have. I recommend buying the healer's staff from the shop. If you can't, try selling some rare items to get it. If you are still not able to, then get your chances without them. Each time behemoth is finished, if all your party member's HP are green (or at least HIGH yellow), use relentless assault. Keep attacking even while behemoth is starting to attack since there's a chance at least one member can still attack. After Behemoth's attack (or in the middle of his attack), just switch back to combat clinic. I suggest provoking behemoth so that your medics can heal the party. Keep repeating the strategy and you'll probably be able get to gestalt mode even before the doom counter is 750.
Living Time was created in 1972.
