I have heard of this beetle before, saw it on animal planet. It doesn't throw evolution out the window. In fact it completely supports the idea of those strange evolutionary incidences I mentioned. O and if evolution isn't right forsakenwayfarer then what pray tell is? There is little to no evidence that any major religion is true so if not them and not evolution then what?
Texevoloution is flawed, if you would have checked my link you could see that the bombadier beetle throws the theory out the window quit easily.

A leviathan is a leviathan not a dragon. it would probably look more like a serpent than anything else. there are many dipictions of a leviathan-even a mechanacal one!

Weren't the dragons the ships in which the Gods flew?

Where can I find that mechanical description for the Leviathan? Did I mention Israel/Germany is testing out a new sub just outside my hometown these days. That one can indeed blow fire. It is designed to carry nukes. That's why I want it out of our waters.
As for the original quote that starts this thread. It's not the same word that is used but in KJV 1st Kings is used another word for coal, "retseph" which can mean "hot stone, glowing stone or coal, flame, firebolt, spark".
1Ki 19:6 And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.
Blessings,

Well when you consider the entomylogy of dragon, it comes from the greek word for serpent.
Could they mean the spitting cobra, whose venom is caustic and causes blindness?
just a thought...

ALso. there is another passage in one of the scriptures that was not included in the bible about king nebucanezer having a dragon that he paraded through babylon.
If any cares i can find that passage and post it and what "book" it appeared in.

And. We also have the Komodo Varan or the Komodo Dragon, whose mouth is so full of bacteria that if you are bitten it's not venom that kills you but it's terrible mouth hygiene. I don't know if you can be killed by it's breath, but it's spit can indeed kill you.

CREATURES mentioned in bible; dragon, leviathan, behemoth, satyr->

The links you provided, also provide the *footnotes (which are worth reading)
following up with the [BibleGateway.com] reference/hyper link provided....go on to Isaiah 13: 21-22 ( as follows)
21: But wild beasts of the desert shall dwell there; and their houses shall be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there.
22: And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their desolate houses, and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged
the 'dragon' in this passage, has no resembelance to a leviathan creature, a behemoth creature or a alien UFO spacecraft; the dragon here most likely means a human person (that is wrapped up in satanic thought/living and by their blasphemy utterances, spit forth fire/destruction)
Furthermore, these 'dragon' people, in having power over common peoples- can by their utterances cause people to be slain, tortured, imprisoned...all the inhumane things that a 'caligula type' leader or a hitler type could concieve of....and implement
Hence, in archaic reasoning...butcher or madman was not as profound a condemnation term as was DRAGON...
