Who is Leviathan: Biblical Demons Explained 

Astaroth or Rahab.

this has to be an AI voice no way this is a real person talking

Leviathan.....name of worlds biggest oil field....coast of palestine....omg this is revealing

Completely agree, he is one of the most interesting creatures in the bible and it even seems like God is amazed at him

​@@Tony4You I thought is was female

Absolutely true

Big snake that makes me jealous of other people's snakes....

Thank you for your service.

Yeah I feel bad about how a few of the demon princes either aren't in SMT or are handled kinda poorly. The next one on the list has a fantastic representation in SMT

Kant bros stay winning

Nice

That’s why envy is crueler than the grave

We make it out the 4th layer of hell boys! Yeah I segment these videos to have both the sin and the demon, but sometimes I go overboard with the philosophy part haha

We're making out of the Cocytus with this one!

My pleasure, I love covering these cool demons! The entrance to hell is always changing, but if you see it you'll know it lol

hey there, I dont know if you would be interested in proof of leviathan but I can show you where his body is. He was a real animal. Part of the Mega Fauna era. He had spiny fins down his head and along his back and long pectoral fins, his body is so large you need to use google earth and remember what youre going to see is a skeletal fossil because he died and sank to the ocean floor and his body just layed there as it decayed. The small bones have eroded in the saltwater but the harder fragments are still there,. Go to google earth and go to the Hawaiian Islands. Scroll the globe down from hawaii and you will find what look like bumps, they are not just bumps but fossilised bone, explore the bumps and prepare to be amazed, His head starts at Johnson Atoll and his body stretches alll the way to chile. Be sure to zoom in on his skeleton to see Im not making this up. you will notice how the bones join together and are almost identical in positioning. in places when you zoom in you can see muscle tissue still. Its going to blow you away, :) In fact go to google earth, make sure its set to sattelite and remove the labels look near and far, and youre going to see alot of the dead giant animals. Greenland is a dead stilng ray, the tail still has spines leading up its tail to the mainland and if you look closely at the head of it the submerged part of a stingrays head can be seen. I found them by accident and I can stop seeing them. I hope you enjoy this journey of giants.

He is in us and we in him. What he represents is the primordial, dark chaotic opposite of the ordered and benevolent one and only God. ~jeden tasa ho’et nacca Levitan~

Hey thanks a lot! I'm happy with how it turned out, even though googling images to use is always a pain for things as vague as "sin"

I do it all for people like you brother!

Hey thanks a lot! I just so happened to cover a few demons that were not really in SMT for the past couple videos, but the one after this is going to be covering the SMT desings. Also I actually have a video covering Lucifer and Satan differences on the channel already!

@@Tony4You oh great I'll go check that one out!

Also Fairy Leviathan from the Megaman Zero series I guess, though for that one I guess it's more so by name than anything lol; alongside that, there's Gyarados's name in the French localization of the Gen 1 Pokemon games, and Kyogre seemingly being more directly based on it as well

There's also Levias in Zelda, but I don't think the inspiration for it comes from the bible

Thank you for real. I know I'm niche, but I'm glad people that do watch seem to really enjoy

Yeah Asmodeus is the real archfiend of envy. The archfiend of lust is Asherah, and they can fuse to create Astaroth. Leviathan is just a really big sea monster. Basically a dragon, not a demon king. Here are the actual archfiends/demon kings ranked from least to most powerful: 1: Belphegor: Sloth 2: Mammon: Greed 3: Asherah: Lust 4: Beelzebub: Gluttony 5: Asmodeus: Envy (Can fuse with Asherah to create Astaroth, who rivals Lucifer in power) 6: Matsema: Wrath (Also known as The Satan/The Accuser) 7: Lucifer: Pride

Most likely it's because Leviathan is the Judeo-Christian interpretation for ancient sea serpents such as Tiamat, Typhon or Vritra, specifically deriving the nomenclature from Lotan. These sorts of narratives are typically that of the sea serpent overtaking the world from their respective pantheons out of raw desire to be the one with absolute dominion. Tiamat wishes to make her son into the prime ruler of the world instead of the Babylonian gods, Vritra's main ambition is to be stronger than the other gods, and Typhon is literally formed as a result of Hera's jealousy. Within the context of the formation of seven (nine) deadly sins and their eventual association with various demons, it isn't something necessarily tied to scripture but more theological studies working backwards from there. Leviathan could very well have been chosen because the PIE sea serpent myth works for envy and Leviathan is a recognizable name that is also a sea serpent and that is within Biblical texts.

Oh yeah I got a new repertoire of music to use in the videos

Oh yeah I got a lot more music to use in the videos, I'm glad people enjoy!

Thanks a lot! I hope people keep enjoying the videos

Oh I for sure do plan to go back to covering figures of eastern religions, the Mara video was one of my favorites I covered

My pleasure! Thanks for watching

Oh that's awesome to hear! I love making demonology videos and the sin explanation aspect is a great challenge to explain for me. I'm so glad you enjoy

A good sacrifice has an impact on the heart of the presenter. Even pagan cultures knew this. That's why Moloch demanded babies and that's why salvation could only come through the death of the Christ. God put to death his only son who was without sin, so perfect a sacrifice that it could override the preternatural law of death.

You a real one for that my friend

Could be very interesting to cover one day, there is a lot philosophically to talk about when it comes to the doppelganger and the lore surrounding it is terrifying

If I don't cover their SMT designs it's usually because I don't feel like they are done well enough in the series. This video is long enough though haha

There's always much more than meets the eye

I thought it what ancient Jews thought a blue whale or sperm whale was. But hey it was for us explore humanity's faults.

Have you ever heard of Jonathan Pageau? I think he is the best guy to understand this more mystic side of christianity, if you haven't seeing his videos I strongly recommended

That means a lot hearing people appreciate my observations so highly. I try to bridge philosophy and theology so everyone regardless of faith can appreciate these great stories!

That could be interesting, but I'm not sure if there are many per se. Something to do with the more positive side of the spiritual beings could be good to make a series on though, maybe the tree of life angels

Because the P5 villains represent the 7 deadly sins, notice how their names in the boss fights have names like Leviathan

Oh yes it does, not used often and the design isn't too great

if I don't cover the SMT aspect, it's usually because it's not handled very well and there isn't much to talk about. The next one will cover the SMT design for sure

@@Tony4You is it Wrath with Satan, Lust with Asmodeus, or Pride with Lucifer?

I wanna handle a little bit of everything! I have a lot of viewers that still don't know about the series anyway

I plan to talk more about eastern religions for sure!

@@Tony4You great! Can't wait!

It is, right?

He took Job on a virtual tour of creation demonstrating the infinite complexity and incalculable wisdom and power required to create and operate it. Jobs response was being humbled and accepting God knows what he's doing. I struggle for a metaphor, but imagine someone complains about their phone being slow so they complain it was designed poorly. Then the creator of the phone pulls it apart and demonstrated how everything was designed down to the arrangement of atoms and movement of electrons through the battery. The complainer would sit back and say "ok I guess you know what You're doing."

For sure, one of the earliest artworks depicting the Leviathan was just a whale too lol

Kinda like the Behemoth was a hippo

Theology comes from combining two Greek words: Theos, meaning God, and Logos, meaning Word or rational thought. [The Word is Elohim from Genesis 1] (not to be confused with Yahweh Elohim, the false Elohim, from Genesis 2) Compare John 1: 1-5 with Genesis 1: 1-5: John 1: 1-5 Names of God Bible The Word Becomes Human 1 In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was already with God in the beginning. 3 Everything came into existence through him. Not one thing that exists was made without him. 4 He was the source of life, and that life was the light for humanity. 5 The light shines in the dark, and the dark has never extinguished it. Genesis 1: 1-5 Names of God Bible The Creation 1 In the beginning Elohim created heaven and earth. 2 The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep water. The Ruach Elohim was hovering over the water. 3 Then Elohim said, “Let there be light!” So there was light. 4 Elohim saw the light was good. So Elohim separated the light from the darkness. 5 Elohim named the light day, and the darkness he named night. There was evening, then morning-the first day.

Compare: Hebrews 11 Names of God Bible 3 Faith convinces us that God created the world through his word. This means what can be seen was made by something that could not be seen. with: Genesis 2 Names of God Bible 2 Heaven and earth and everything in them were finished. 2 By the seventh day ELOHIM had finished the work he had been doing. On the seventh day he stopped the work he had been doing. 3 Then ELOHIM blessed the seventh day and set it apart as holy, because on that day he stopped all his work of creation. The Creation of Man and Woman 4 This is the account of heaven and earth when they were created, at the time when YAHWEH ELOHIM made earth and heaven. Also, note verse 4 below (this is Isaiah talking about Yahweh) "seen any god except you": Isaiah 64 Names of God Bible 64 If only you would split open the heavens and come down! The mountains would quake at your presence. 2 Be like the fire that kindles brushwood and makes water boil. Come down to make your name known to your enemies. The nations will tremble in your presence. 3 When you did awe-inspiring things that we didn’t expect, you came down and the mountains quaked in your presence. 4 No one has ever heard, no one has paid attention, and no one has seen any god except you. You help those who wait for you. Compare to: John 1 Names of God Bible 18 No one has ever seen God. God’s only Son, the one who is closest to the Father’s heart, has made him known. and: John 6 Names of God Bible 46 I’m saying that no one has seen the Father. Only the one who is from God has seen the Father. and: 1 John 4 Names of God Bible 12 No one has ever seen God. If we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us. lastly: Jeremiah 23 Names of God Bible 23 “I am an Elohim who is near. I am also an Elohim who is far away,” declares Yahweh. note: "an" Elohim, one of many.

Note how in verse 3 the Ruach Elohim says there's a true Elohim. Which means there's a false Elohim. Spoiler Alert: Yahweh Elohim from Genesis 2 is the false Elohim. 2 Chronicles 15: 1-7 Names of God Bible 15 The Ruach Elohim came to Azariah, son of Oded. 2 Azariah went to Asa and said to him, “Listen to me, Asa and all you men from Judah and Benjamin. Yahweh is with you when you are with him. If you will dedicate your lives to serving him, he will accept you. But if you abandon him, he will abandon you. 3 For a long time Israel was without the true Elohim, without a priest who taught correctly, and without Moses’ Teachings. 4 But when they were in trouble, they turned to Yahweh Elohim of Israel. When they searched for him, he let them find him. 5 At those times no one could come and go in peace, because everyone living in the land had a lot of turmoil. 6 One nation crushed another nation; one city crushed another. Elohim had tormented them with every kind of trouble. 7 But you must remain strong and not become discouraged. Your actions will be rewarded.”

[Yahweh Elohim, from Genesis 2, is the false Elohim (Deity)]: (1) The LORD = Baal: 2 Samuel 5: 20 Names of God Bible 20 So David went to Baal Perazim and defeated the Philistines there. He said, “Yahweh has overwhelmed my enemies in front of me like an overwhelming flood.” That is why that place is called Baal Perazim [The LORD Overwhelms]. (2) The anger of the Yahweh = Satan: Compare the following two verses: [2 Samuel 24: 1] Again the anger of the Yahweh burned against Israel, and he incited David against them, saying, “Go and take a census of Israel and Judah.” and [1 Chronicles 21:1] Satan rose up against Israel and incited David to take a census of Israel. (3) Israelites and Canaanites are friends, relatives and neighbors: In Exodus 12:40 the Masoretic text reads: “The length of the time the Israelites lived in Egypt was 430 years,” a sentence that has created massive chronological problems for Jewish historians, since there is no way to make the genealogies last that long. In the Samaritan version, however, the text reads: “The length of time the Israelites lived in Canaan and in Egypt was 430 years.” Is Yahweh the son of El? Yahweh was originally described as one of the sons of El (Elohim) in Deuteronomy 32:8-9, but this was removed by a later emendation to the text. With the notable exception of Yahweh himself, the deities worshipped by Israel were also Canaanite. These included El, the ruler of the pantheon, Asherah, his consort, and Baal. (4) The villian of the Baal Cycle is an adopted (from the broader Levantine polytheism) character named Yam (Canaanite word for Sea) who gets his name changed by God to Yaw for being a tyrant. The Mt Ebal curse tablet, oldest Yahweh inscription ever found, has YHWH as just YHW. Yaw, who was originally named Yam. (5) Baals and asherahs (Lords and ladies in English) are gods/goddesses and the Baal Cycle takes place in heaven. You should read it. That's when Yahweh Elohim (false Elohim) from Genesis 2 got kicked out of heaven (off heavenly Mt Saphon): Judges 3 Names of God Bible 7 The people of Israel did what Yahweh considered evil. They forgot Yahweh their Elohim and served other gods and goddesses-the Baals and the asherahs. 1 Samuel 31 Names of God Bible 10 They put his armor in the temple of their goddesses-the asherahs-and fastened his corpse to the wall of Beth Shan. 2 Chronicles 34: 4 Names of God Bible 4 He had the altars of the various Baal gods torn down. He cut down the incense altars that were above them. He destroyed the Asherah poles, carved idols, and metal idols. He ground them into powder and scattered the powder over the tombs of those who had sacrificed to them. (6) A murderer while keeping his hands clean: Deuteronomy 34 Names of God Bible 10 There has never been another prophet in Israel like Moses, whom Yahweh dealt with face to face. 11 He was the one Yahweh sent to do all the miraculous signs and amazing things in Egypt to Pharaoh, to all his officials, and to his whole country. 12 Moses used his mighty hand to do all the spectacular and awe-inspiring deeds that were seen by all the Israelites. (7) The LORD of flies: Isaiah 7 Names of God Bible 17 “Yahweh will bring on you, your people, and your ancestor’s family a time unlike any since Ephraim broke away from Judah. He will bring the king of Assyria. 18 On that day Yahweh will whistle for the flies that are at the distant branches of the Nile River in Egypt and for the bees that are in Assyria. 19 All of them will come and settle in the deep valleys, in the cracks in the cliffs, on all the thornbushes, and at all the water holes. Lastly, the Father of Lies: "I am Yahweh your Elohim (Deity)."

Of course Deus is not a god, it's the final boss of Xenogears 🤦‍♂️

I'm not sure if it's a correction or addition, but crocodiles were mentioned being created by God like whales/Leviathan, for the same propaganda reasons - look at God creating all of the beasts you think are like gods. There are also more digs at crocodiles, especially since Sobek was worshipped by Egyptians...

True... Maybe you should do "that thing" to your landlord

@@Tony4You SIR, YES, SIR! OORAH!

How the heck is this video political? I don't get it.
