Hebrew: בְּהֵמוֹת (bᵉhêmôwth)
Pronunciation: be-hay-mohth'

Derivation: in form a plural or בְּהֵמָה (bᵉhêmâh) H929, but really a singular of Egyptian derivation
Definition: a water-ox, i.e. the hippopotamus or Nile-horse
KJV Renderings: Behemoth
Senses
- perhaps an extinct dinosaur
- a Diplodocus or Brachiosaurus, exact meaning unknown
- Some translate as elephant or hippopotamus but from the description in Job 40:15-24, this is patently absurd.
