In Job 3: 8, Revised Version, and marg. of Authorized Version, it denotes the dragon which, according to Eastern tradition, is an enemy of light; in 41: 1 the crocodile is meant; in Ps. 104: 26 it " denotes any large animal that moves by writhing or wriggling the body, the whale, the monsters of the deep." This word is also used figuratively for a cruel enemy, as some think " the Egyptian host, crushed by the divine power, and cast on the shores of the Red Sea" ( Ps. 74: 14). As used in Isa. 27: 1, " leviathan the piercing [ R. V. ' swift'] serpent, even leviathan that crooked [ R. V. marg. ' winding'] serpent," the word may probably denote the two empires, the Assyrian and the Babylonian.
