Leviathan and Behemoth?
I have to say that these water curses are among my least favorite.
Is it so terrible to allow us bathing, and tea water?
I am not one for a great deal of theological research, but considering our collective environment, there may be something to all of this after all.
17 Thus saith the LORD, In this thou shalt know that I am the LORD: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in mine hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
Certainly seems to fit the bill.
Shall we be expecting flies, lice, and locusts next?
If so, I will be stockpiling insect repellent, and not adding to the rumblings of fear I hear out and about.
This Adrastus is still intent on the cryptic statements, and a healthy dose of Deific practice; namely taking or giving trade for certain behaviors, or the influence of others.
The Feline, however, I have yet to get a good fix on, yet if we are in keeping with a biblical theme, perhaps the tale of Leviathan and Behemoth could be applicable?
I use this reference only because of the duality nature, cat and dog.
In the book of Job, both Behemoth and Leviathan are listed alongside a number of other animals that are clearly mundane, such as goats, eagles, and hawks, leading many Christian scholars to surmise that Behemoth and Leviathan may also be mundane creatures. The animal most often proposed for Leviathan is the Nile crocodile, yet Leviathan is thought to be a mythological 'sea monster', while Behemoth may be related to an Ox ( for all that the term refers to 'a large or powerful entity)
Mmm, perhaps it is all theorizing. I have spoken to neither of these creatures, and thus may not make a more educated guess.
