Bible Discussion: What Is Behemoth?

Now, this is where we stop and begin to investigate what this creature is. The Hebrew word "Be-hay-MOHTH" is the plural of "be-hay-MAW," which means "beast." But although plural, it is used in a singular form. This is lingusitically called an intensive or majestic plural, making it a beast which is grandiose, huge, and awe-inspiring.
