What Does the Bible Say About Dinosaurs? -Conclusion

 Were Behemoth and Leviathan dinosaurs?


No. Although these animals mentioned in the book of Job cannot be identified with certainty, Behemoth is generally identified as the hippopotamus and Leviathan as the crocodile. These identifications match the description of them given in the Scriptures. (Job 40:15-23; 41:1, 14-17, 31) In any case, the terms "Behemoth" and "Leviathan" cannot refer to dinosaurs. God told Job to observe these animals personally, and Job lived long enough after the dinosaurs had passed off the scene. -  JOB 40:16; 421:8. 


What happened to the dinosaurs?


The Bible does not comment on the disappearance of the dinosaurs. However, it does state that all things were created "because of [God's] will," so God clearly had a purpose for making dinosaurs. (Revelation 4:11) When that purpose was fulfilled, God allowed the dinosaurs to become extinct.
