We Studied Dragons in the Bible (Here’s What We Found) 

We initially released Chaos Dragon in November 2023. Our team has chosen to repost it here after discovering that we were unable to trim the premiere content from the original video. Everything else about the video remains unchanged. Thank you for watching!

"Be wise as serpents but innocent as doves." Matt. 10:16 Know how a dragon thinks, yet don't let yourself become transformed into one. It is good advice for a young dragon slayer.

I had a dream a few weeks ago about a dragon. In the dream I was watching this dragon go from city to city. He was breathing fire on each one. The next thing I am looking street level on where he breathed the fire. There was chaos everywhere. People looting, burning things, kinda like summer of love 2020. I woke up rebuking civil unrest. I hope everyone is staying watchful and prayerful. I felt like I should give this warning when I saw the title. Follow the prompting of the Holy Spirit. If you get a strong feeling you should not go to a certain place on a certain day or time pls listen. The Lord may just be saving your or your families lives.

”Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.“ ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭21‬:‭1‬ ‭ESV‬‬ Well done BP!!! Good stuff! 🙏🏼🙌🏼

The sound effects on this video are amazing!

I am a visual learner like many people in here. I have Asperger’s syndrome and I learn through art (which is why I love reading comic books and graphic novels.) I’m trying to understand the Bible and these videos really help me. The art is amazing and the sound effects. Thank you for the hard work you guys put into this channel - I really appreciate it. May god bless you all and the souls in this comment section.

The sea serpent, the leviathan spoken of in the book of job. Nice showcasing of simbolic hermeneutics, never dreamt someone would do it. Bravo.

Thank you guys so much for your content. Without you guys I would not have learned to read the scriptures in its context. May the Lord bless you and keep you.

I watched a video recently (likely yesterday), a movie clip mentioning the bible verses of Jesus cast out demon from the possessed man in the book of Matthew 8:28-32. The demon was casted out from the man and they entered the herd of pigs/swines and rushed down the steep… (In the movie they quoted the pigs entered ocean for their plots but in fact was lake in the bible), they also mentioned the scripture of Jesus walking on the ocean. They said ocean, from this perspective and context mentioned above, the larger body of water can be where they dwell - 🌊 is like the demon’s home on earth. Jesus walking on the ocean is claiming and showing to the demons who is the KING 👑! And then I wasn’t sure if they were accurate because they used it for a movie, not Bible teaching… but then I woke up this morning and this is the first thing I saw ❤. Praise the Lord for giving me wisdom, thank you Lord Jesus.

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster.

Thank you for your commitment on breaking these things down. A side note though. Your animated drawings as used with the Bible books like Isaiah, Daniel, are probably the best graphic Bible representations I have ever seen and the concepts I earnt through that have stuck with me and my house for years. If we could have more of that.. Thanks

Man this animation and sound effect are amazing!!!!

You guys make me feel like I am a part of the Bible Project. I love the content you guys put out. The animation is sublime.

I’m curious, could you guys post the Bible chapters and verses you used for this video? It’s an excellent breakdown, but some of it doesn’t sound like it’s straight from the Bible, so I was curious as to where you saw these parts about the “Chaos Dragon”.

Man…each video of you guys just makes me cry…thank you for these resources.

I loved the podcasts covering this topic it’s so great to see it visualized!!!

Jesus Christ the Savior and the dragon slayer.

Wow! The ending summarized my thoughts and questions that have tumbled around in my head for a while. Thank you! It's all clear now.

Beautiful illustrations and animations. Love you guys!

This is so good. I'm studying International Affairs and one of the theories/schools of thought we often touch on is called realism where at the international level its anarchy (everyone country acting for their own self interest and where everyone is living in constant anxiety). At the domestic level people gave up some of their freedoms to the "leviathan" through a social contact for protection and order giving rise to the government/state power. The point you guys touched on in terms of nations being described as beasts reminded me of Thomas hobbes and the leviathan form of government. Never made this connection until now. Going down a rabbit hole now 😅

You guys’ graphics and sound designs are phenomenal! Super awesome way to steward your gifts!

Super cool!!! Loved this depiction🙏🏻

Amazing video! Thank you!❤

a friend’s father of mine showed me this channel. this is some really high quality stuff frfr. incredible work yall

God bless you guys. You inspire me to create.

This is incredible. I cannot get over the sound design in these videos 🤯🤯🤯 and the art style and characters are so unique and creative. Love it 🔥 pls make a movie/series of the bible 🥺

Great video! Thank you!

Great video! Thank you! It's exactly what I needed

Love the SFX and the animation! Great job!

This was a drastic oversimplification but i loved the art in this. based on the title, i figured this would be about dinosaurs considering dragons were the name they used for them back before the term dinosaur was invented.

I love these animated videos, they're great teaching tools for my son. We watch before bed and talk about them afterwards!! Fantastic content, thank you

REPENT For The Dragon has already been slayed/defeated, its being slayed/defeated and will be slayed and defeated forever. 🔥🔥🔥

LOVE THIS ❤ God bless you 🌟

Thank you for the thoughtful narrative and wonderful visuals. God bless

I just love how the animation summarizes the podcasts... Blessedly Brilliant! much love, from The Philippines

the recording and sound engineers absolutely need a resounding applause cuz DAMN, DO THEY BRING IT EVERY TIME IN EVERY BIBLEPROJECT

My dragon is confusion, mental health and anxiety. And this is such a good reminder to believe in God to help me with this

Such quality work! Great job everyone at the Bible Project.

hey guys I absolutely love your videos and the animation and explainations are amazing but the titles are very confusing for some reason and I liked the old ones better before you guys changed it anyways amazing video as always!

What an animation and sound team! Awesome.

this animation is absolutely beyond amazing thank you so much

okay. beautifully done. storytelling at its best

U guys make really good videos and u make them very well

Great video!

I really like the art style in this one!

The animation and knowledge it portrayed is amazing

THANK YOU for this wonderful resource.....There is so much to learn from the bible...I sometimes feel like a kid in an ice cream shop....Sooo many flavors i dont know which one to choose❤

This video is incredible, no words to describe it.

Idk who does all your animation, but it’s awesome and I love it! It’s a huge shift from boring Bible history teachings and being a more visual person, it helps grab my attention more to be able to understand it a lot better!!

Love you bible project and God bless you all ❤

Thank you for reposting.

This video is super well animated and gorgeous to look at! The depictions are so smooth and captivating, and the sound design is awesome! Well done and I like your interesting imagery with dragons. God bless! ❤🙏

That was perfect! 👍🏽

What a beautiful video!!!!

This was a truly super explenation...for adults and youth...i love it when people teach others about the spiritual world in the bible and in our world today and how it all works...to many churches don,t teach this..thank you for beeing different and teach it as it should be ❤❤❤❤ 1uestion..is there a way to get Dutch translations? I know a lot of youth i could help with your movies

So good!!

This is amazing!

These animated depictions are brilliant 👍

Great video

incredible message

the dound designer did an amazing job!!!

Why was this upload not in my sub list should have been notified of this am subbed to this channel

Cool animation and a good message. Kudos. (:

You all do such a great job with your videos! I love the way that you share the details of Scripture according to the original audience. Please continue to minister in this very unique way!

Thank you so much for you creations!

A spectacular way of teaching biblical truths!!

Whoa. I greatly love this video and what it entails me to believe. It gave me a major epiphany on how to better understand things, also brings about an even greater revelation to not be enveloped by the seduction of evil

This made me think of Jonah, when he also was 3 days in the belly of a sea creature. It's like a sort of reference to what would happen in the future. Those connections are amazing and it makes you dig deeper in the symbolism in the bible

I love your videos

Wow, the analogies used here are powerful. What a great way to connect with a new generation and make it easy to understand without twisting the word.

The Chaoskampf … absolutely beautiful story!

The Leviathan. Great Video and Animation 🔥

Wow that was amazing narration, theme & idea of every evil rooted in the dragon beast of death & destruction

GOD bless y'all great video

Thank you for the link to the website as I found this video over simplified. At every comment, I was asking, ‘where is that in the Bible?’ I would then discover it is in translation that understanding is found.

You and I must have had the Same dream brothers. That end scene of the beach front with the bonfire...I've sat in front of that fire.

I can't describe how beautiful and impacting this is, May God bless you guys 🙏🏻

This provoked my imagination really well. Thanks for making this :D

just love that Jesus animation, so elegant, magnificent and peaceful

The Animation is gorgeous.

beautiful!!!

Thank you for your service and support and help and love 💓 Your video was very helpful and directive and understanding 🎉😮🎈 thank you for your videos that explains and shares 😀 the Bible ! Amen 🙏🙌 may the Lord bless and keep blessing ⭐💞 your ministry

Awesome video and thanks to Jesus for using you guys to bring this out. May Jesus bless, guide and heal all of you. In Jesus Name, Amen. I would like to have or purchase those panel that’s shown in this video. Or I will print it out If possible.

This podcast series is so dope - I never knew dragons were so prominent in the Bible and it's blown my mind

epic animations

The battle is already won. Nice

really good animation

I have always hated the Ocean, but now I know clearly who I am fighting against.

This reminds me of yhe how to train your dragon special about Bork the Bold

Guys I love you all so much You make the bible looks easier to understand 😊

Oh! the strat of being swallowed and then killing the dragon from inside holds true! Sorry, I wanna let that out from my system, but seriously your videos give me goosebumps and easy to understand. Reading the bible without references can be hard and disorienting, so watching videos and stories related to the bible are really inspiring and give me motivation. Thanks for the video❤

When you guys released the original video I was so curious how you would manage getting rid of that original release footage. Makes sense. No problems at all as the world will benefit from having this released twice for sure. Praise be to our heavenly father who has given us victory over chaos and the snake✅🔔❤️

You guys should make an animated movie on the complete bible

really thought you would go into the whole dinosaur/dragon rabbit hole with all the ancient depictions that for some reason get called out as myth

Lewis and Tolkien knew about this. Eustace becoming a dragon himself and Aslan freeing him is now even more a powerful story

A great way to remind us not to use the devices of the devil. The weapons of our warfare are very different!

Will you do another one about Behemoth and the Leviathan

Wow!❤😊

Dude…VERY cool
