Thank you for revisiting this thread. It was a thing I did before bad troubles and tribulations of my own began..... (helped me brace for them lol).

My belief is that the Job we have was written from a clever Hebrew poet, seems to have lots of intricate meanings, puns, symbolism of a master Hebrew linguist.... and also that this Hebrew literary wonder was an adaptation from an older Ugarritic text of a Babylonian story.

I had a long study of it but the moderators put it into the 'my space' section because no one else responded to it.

One thing I saw was that Behemoth was reference to Job, and Leviathan was reference to God. (Job 40 and 41).

of Leviathan his underside is jaggd patshards leaving a trail in the mud like a threshing sledge -- similar to how cuneiform was written by pressing marks into clay.
