However, tanniyn is always translated into another word when we write it in English. Tanniyn occurs 28 times in the Bible and is normally translated “dragon.” It is also translated “serpent,” “sea monster,” “dinosaur,” “great creature,” and “reptile.”

In English translations, tanniyn may be translated as “sea monster” or “serpent”, but it is usually translated as “dragon”. These creatures are mentioned nearly thirty times in the Old Testament and are found both on land and in the water

No mention of Dino, so has he just added that bit to give it some weight. Or did Wikipedia steal from that site and a Darwin fan edited out the dino bit? Lots of what he has written is on Wiki, seems like he just padded it out a bit.
If you want to believe that the Behemoth, Leviathan and the rest are real then so are Harpies, Cyclops, Minotaur, Medusa.............
Would it not be far simpler to say that God didn't write the old testament, it was written after the fact and that Dinos had been and gone before it got written. And so they went amiss. If I believed in God creating the Earth, that's how I would look at it.
You can't link them to the Bible, considering the size and impact on the planet, they would get more mention than the odd vague description. Imagine how low on the food chain we would be if we existed at the same time.
Also, if people and dinos existed at the same time, then you would find human fossils that would carbon date millions of years ago, that's based on carbon dating being wrong, which it has to be to support the theory.
Nah, if you believe in God, best leave Dinos alone and hope that when you die they fit in someplace.
