There may be the ocean, huge and spacious, teeming with creatures past quantity.
Right now’s Perception & Scripture: Psalm 104:10–18,24–26(NIV)
Although the psalmist in Psalm 104 makes reference to numerous creatures within the earth, sky, and sea, just one creature is referenced utilizing its correct title—Leviathan (v. 26). That is one among 5 instances that Leviathan is talked about in Scripture (see additionally Job three:eight; 41:1–34; Psalm 74:14; Isaiah 27:1).
Who or what was Leviathan? All biblical references are in poetic passages, and Leviathan is solid in each literal and figurative roles. In Psalm 104, Leviathan is a sea creature: “There may be the ocean . . . and Leviathan, which you fashioned to frolic there” (vv. 25–26).
