The 'minotaur'(meaning:"Bull of Minos") is not mentioned in the Bible, anywhere. In Greek mythology, this creature (a man with a bull's head)was the offspring of King Minos(King of Crete) and his wife. The Minotaur lived in a maze (or labyrinth), and every nine years, 14 children from Athens were to be sacrificed to him; released into the labyrinth to get lost and then devoured.
A number of Christendom's churches and religious buildings pattern their design after this pagan labyrinth (like the Mirepoix Cathedral's maze which features a central Minotaur), and the churches adapted the symbolism for their own use, but they are nowhere mentioned in The Bible.
