Yo! Over a million views in just over a week?! Y'all did it! Part 2 coming soon!
Hello @jazza I assume that the leviathan, was maybe even like the story of the loch ness monster, and there have been theories that the loch ness monster, was a dinosaur, that was trapped in a lake after the ice age, it could be that the leviathan was a Mossasaurus a giant serpentine sea dinosaur that had sharp scales and a long tail.
Pls try this with other religious book like Indian(hindu/Sanatana Dharma),Greek,etc.
Hell yeah!
Be sure to include the Leviathan and Behemoth's avian counterpart, the Ziz, in the next video!
Looking forward to part 2, hope it included Aziz. to finish the trinity of Leviathan, Behemoth & Aziz. Beasts of the Water, Land & Sky
As a Christian, I must say I find it very refreshing how overall kind everyone is being here. I’m used to anything semi harder to understand or believe in Christianity being completely mocked and hated on. I’m so glad to see so many unbelievers just being intrigued or liking the artwork and not hating on others’ beliefs. Thank you all! ❤
Well regardless of religious affiliation almost everyone likes some kind of art. Like the massive churches with art all over in Europe being tourist attractions.
I think a lot of people that hate on religious people generally might just have had bad experiences with the overly religious side, zealots if you will.
For example being gay or lesbian in a lot of heavy religious areas or even homes wont be easy.
Maybe a woman getting an abortion, already a stressful thing, then get called names, and told you are going to hell. Not a fun time.
I’d like to think life would be a lot easier if people minded their own business. Haha. Maybe you are a more chill christian that is just vibing, trying to live, and survive in the world with the rest of us, and never once said a mean thing to anyone.
I’m just trying to live my life, have fun, maybe make friends, die in peace. XD
@kay8487 but the main issue is hating on religion and religious people because of your personal experiences with people in your life... Christianity is the worlds largest religion. With over 2.3 billion people claiming to be of the faith. If you're judging and mocking 2.3 billion people because of your experiences with a handful of people who claim to be Christian, that says FAR more about you than it does religious people... and none of what's said is good.
@@XFizzlepop-Berrytwist And I get that, and I’d like to say I’m much more chill (not not taking sin seriously, but not preaching hellfire and brimstone from the pulpit). Everyone is created equal under God. Everyone equally deserves second chances, general respect and kindness, etc. But the wide online attitude to Christianity is “How idiotic for you to believe in your precious sky daddy” when I have said absolutely nothing rude to the person. I get having a bad experience. But a bad experience with a few doesn’t excuse persecution and complete disregard for the whole. Like Muslims. One terrorist attack from a smaller group of Muslims shouldn’t mean that I completely disregard, disrespect, and constantly attack Muslims online. But I understand what you are saying.
Prob because they see it as cool fiction. And it def sounds like it with the giants and beasts and mentions of unicorns. Which does lead me to a question. I lost sleep over this. Ya know how one of the biggest sins is lying and misguiding others in the word of god? Because it also damns not just the lair but the misguided. I bring this up because the Bible sounds like pieces of fanfic stapled together at times. Like some stuff just don’t add up. Like there was a part where god sends lions after kids because they made fun of Elisha. Which really goes against the all fair, just, wise, and good god when this is an overreaction that sounds like fanfic. Or someone trying to prove god loves them so much he’ll do something this petty. There’s also countless instances of him showing favoritism. And that time Abram pretends to be Sarai’s sister and the guy coming onto her gets punished when he didn’t know. All this don’t add up. Especially to with the description of a just and fair god. And how come we haven’t noticed any giant monsters yet? And all this makes me wonder if it was tampered with, parts were just filled in with imagination, or really is just all made up. Either we had it all wrong and are damned because of misinformation and years of mistranslation and even tampering for personal gain, are we all screwed? Who have we praying to all this time then if we got it wrong? Is anyone even there?

I am good because I simply want to be good, even tho I know my existence is nothing and I will turn into ash without anything after
We are not the same
I want to see more biblical creatures. Jazza's monster design/ creature sculpture videos are a ton of fun to see.
Definitely
Agreeeed
“And the huge dragon was cast down and out - that age-old serpent,
Who is called the Devil and Satan,
he who is the seducer (deceiver) of all humanity the world over;
he was forced out and down to the earth,
and his angels were flung out along with him.”
Revelations 12:9
sure
💙
A real cool detail about the behemoth is that if you remove the horns which are never actually mentioned and add the part where it says its tail is like a cedar tree and mix it with its massively swole body, you can tell that it kinda resembles a brachiosaurus.
You can’t say it’s a brachiosaurus but you can say it’s a sauropod
I just searched up dinosaur with long neck 😭
I'm thinking hippopotamus. But maybe it is a dinosaur. Most creaters we don't understand in legends are just dinosaurs.
@@jona-ey1fiit could be a diplodocus

DO A PART 2! The creatures in revelation are so cool! There was even one angel so big one foot was in the middle of the ocean, and the other was on land(the Bible described it better than I could.)
A God Who Understands
But Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place even to lay his head.”
-Luke 9:58
The reception that the world gave Mary and Joseph before Christ was born is typical of the reception it gave Jesus when He was here on this earth. Jesus Himself said, “Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place even to lay his head”
(Luke 9:58)
We’ve romanticized the story of Jesus’ birth in our Nativity scenes, with Mary, Joseph, and the baby in a stable full of adoring animals. Meanwhile, the shepherds and wise men look on as a bright star shines in the distance and angels fly overhead.
But the reality is that the birth of Jesus was cold, unsanitary, and difficult. He was wrapped not in satin but in cheap rags. That doesn’t diminish the story. Rather, it enhances it to show the humiliation that Christ went through to enter this world of ours.
It symbolizes His entire life on Earth from the cradle to the cross. Jesus could have been born in the most elegant mansion on the ritziest boulevard in the Roman Empire. He could have had aristocratic parents. He could have had the finest clothes from the most exclusive shops. And He could have had legions of angels at His beck and call.
But He did not. Instead, He laid it all aside.
Think about it: Jesus was born in a cave. He borrowed food to feed a crowd. He borrowed a coin to illustrate a truth. And He rode into Jerusalem on a borrowed donkey and celebrated Passover in a borrowed room. He even died on a borrowed cross that was meant for another: Barabbas. Then He was laid in a borrowed tomb that belonged to Joseph of Arimathea.
C.H. Spurgeon said that Jesus was “infinite, and an infant eternal, and yet born of a woman . . . supporting the universe, and yet needing to be carried in a mother’s arms.”
Philippians 2:6-7 points out, “Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being”
He who was larger than the universe became an embryo. Jesus Christ was deity in diapers.
Jesus was God in Heaven. Then He was God as an embryo, God as a baby, God as a man, God on the cross, and God rising again. He never ceased to be God. But He did lay aside some of the privileges of deity.
Philippians goes on to say, “When he appeared in human form, he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross” (2:7-8).
Jesus humbled Himself and walked this earth and breathed our air and lived our life. And then He died our death. We have a God in Heaven who understands what it’s like to walk through this life. He literally felt our pain. And He went through all of this for us.
get closer to God pls there is gonna be many people who arnt going to make it to the kingdom of heaven🙏✝️😊
I was gonna say I can do that too, just stand on a beach and put one foot in the water and one on the sand, but then I realise you said "middle of the ocean" lol. Guess I can't do that one.
As a christian myself, it was cool to see biblical creatures come to life. You are very talented and I hope you have more of these videos.

Oh really 😢 the word "Cool" cannot describe what really this monsters and abomination really means.
The Leviathan is often an embodiment of chaos and threatening to eat the damned after their life. In the end, it is annihilated. Christian theologians identified Leviathan with the demon of the deadly sin envy. According to Ophite diagrams, the Leviathan encapsulates the space of the material world.
It is strange as a Christian myself that I never really pay attention to the way some of these are described, especially the angels, and they really are described in hard to understand ways. It’s really cool to see you sculpt and draw these!
He may not believe in the Bible, but he nailed why Angels always say. FEAR NOT! when we run into one. 😊
Same It’s really cool, I never thought of this as a Christian and artist/animator
Same here
@@rustysm8080Exactly. It was weird as a kid wondering why they always said that if they looked like us, then I got older and read what they really look like and it all clicked...
yeah its extremely cool but as a Jew I'm offended with his attitude.
I would LOVE to see Greek monsters! Especially with the new Percy Jackson TV series coming out next week. Even if you just do drawings, would be super cool.
I love Greek mythology. Jazza would probably have fun with Greek monsters

Love how Jazza didn’t know the theories about what the behemoth could be, and still sketched out a dinosaur.
Edit: came back to say that yes he was taking some creative liberty with the bull head, but the sturdy, muscular limbs and tail is dinosaur-esque (or what science has assumed dinosaurs looked like) (kinda like a sauropod, ofc theories are still theories lol)
uh, to me it looked more like a giant bull

I really really enjoyed this.
And as a Christian, I appreciate your serious deep dive into this, while having fun, and making it neither "religious or antireligious". And honestly, seems like you grasped the poetic nature of these creatures really well.
This is the prophecy about the second coming of Jesus
Zechariah 13:7
“Awake, sword, against my shepherd, against the man who is close to me!” declares the LORD Almighty. “Strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered, and I will turn my hand against the little ones.
The Shepherd here is Jesus.
John 10:11
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
This is the fulfillment of the prophecy.
Matthew 26:31
Then Jesus told them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of me, for it is written: “’I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’
This happened near 30 AD.
Hosea 6:1-2
Come, let us return to the LORD. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds.
After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence.
In prophecies 1day is equal to 1000 years. Which means after two thousand years Jesus will return again.
And on the third day which is the 3rd millennium, we will live in his sight. We all know we cannot see God's face and live on Earth. So it's the second coming of Jesus.
Luke 21:11 ►
There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.
Matthew 24:6
You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.
We are the witnesses of all these things. From the death of Jesus to 2030 there are 2000 years. Jesus is coming soon. Let's all repent and turn from our old ways and turn to the Lord.
Praise the Lord.
Peace and Love to you all
Easter is pagan, the resurrection day of the Lord is correct and please stop taking the Lord's name in vain like saying omg or using it with a bad word or taking it in anyway that is in vain. Even the devil trembles in his name and we shouldn't use the powerful name like that. For the people who says Jesus is not God here's a verse.
Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Everlasting Father?. There's your answer
The whole world will turn against Israel and not just Palestinians. Then know the end is near.
God bless you all.
Please spread this message to the ends of the world.

As a Christian, this is awesome! I’m really hoping you continue this series. I love seeing biblical creatures drawn and created in different ways. You’re an amazing artist!
I'd LOVE to see Jazza try to sculpt one of the more wild angel descriptions. It'd be cool to see what he comes up with.
That's what the last one is, an angel
Yes
I really want to see his interpretation and take on the Cherubim.
I forget what the Angels are called in Revelations, (I think it's Revelations, I'll have to fact check) but they're described as having four heads, three of them being different animals and one of the heads being human. Anyway, they're really interesting to think about! but I'd love to see his depiction of those.
@@legokaistudios4794 You are thinking about the Cherubim my dude. They are also described in pretty good detail in the book of Ezekiel.
This was extremely entertaining, I would honestly enjoy seeing an entire series dedicated to each creature being taken apart in its entirety...
Me too!
Same
Same 👍❤️
This and on other religions too!
Yes indeed
This look like a really great series. I'd love to see more Biblical characters like Goliath, Sampson, Nebuchadnezzar etc.
Also, the Norse pantheon would be awesome too!
Sampson is a creature now?
@@Baldwin-iv445 Where did I say that?
Super cool to see as a Christian or I think in general! I wish more artists were doing this kind of thing!! It really helps conceptualize the intricacies and overlooked coolness in the Bible that often goes overlooked. Please do more 😁
As a Christian (and fellow artists) I would like you to continue with this because despite a lot of things in the Bible being just the way they’re described I love seeing people’s interpretations of them. As someone who reads lots of books I picture scenes in my mind. The Bible I really ponder how close my mind’s eye is to reality... anyone else?
I'm totally with you! Both as a Christian and fellow artist, I'm always caught on picturing the epic scenes from the Bible as if they were in any of the fantasy books I so much love to read. Keep with it Jazza! It's a delight to see artists interpretations on something so near to my heart - and unimaginable at times hahaha
Yes!
yea, the Biblically you shouldn't be thinking of a creature. The leviathan is a description of the enemies of Israel at that moment in time. Much like Revelation talks of dragons coming forth... it's not real dragons like Smaug from The Hobbit, but rather symbols of a rising empire or threat.
You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth
Exodus 20 4
Old testament but idk
@@broken2550that verse is about not trying to make a representation (or idol )of God based on what you think he looks like; because he knew the Israelites would end up worshiping the art piece instead.
I believe this is also why Protestant churches are so unadorned, when compared to those old Catholic churches
The Seraphim are my favorite angels from the angel hierarchy because of their six wings and they are sometimes described as having multiple eyes all over their bodies. I love the weirdness of them. My dad said that the closer the angels are to God, the weirder they get and it's very true. You did a great job on the Leviathan, Jazza. It's so cool.
Consider, now, that "Seraphim" basically means "the firey ones". Six wings, and fire.
Metal? I think so.
@@robertbeisert3315 Seraph also means serpent like or serpentine so basically heavenly dragons.
Peacocks' tail feathers have eyes too.
@@chrisanders713 why is it always serpents or lizards with every single religion
I have always been amazed by the various creatures/ fantastical beings described in the bible, and as an artist I've tried to draw them many times but I've never come up with anything I'm happy with. That being said, you've done an amazing job here!!
I particularly love the first Angel you drew-it’s breathtaking!
Yes SIR! I love this so much as a Christian who just loves the nity gritty of the bible. I was sitting listening to Jazza quote the Bible with a silly grin on my face. Lol please do another! ❤️

YES. PLEASE can we have a part 2! This was absolutely incredible work and I’d love to see how the rest turn out. Amazing work Jazza, keep it up!
@@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist1 id rather not
@@phatyoshi9867Why?
As a Christian, my favorite theory for what the leviathan was is that it was either a Mosasaurus or a Kronosaurus (those dinosaur looking gaint sea reptiles that went extinct). The Bible and many other historical books points to dinosaurs and other creatures like them existing alongside humans. That also explains behemoth, perhaps being a sauropod dinosaur.
There is a video somewhere (maybe Sling and Stone) where it describes Leviathan as basically a giant crocodile/alligator.
AnswersInGenesis also talks about what TBP said. It’s a crocodilian creature that was killed off. I don’t remember its name though.
Also the dinosaur period is not as long ago as science says it is, that explains some creatures in the bible, I believe that dinosaurs was almost the same period of the bible being written even though the bible does not speak of dinosaurs or mention it maybe even before Jesus was born there might have been dinosaurs...
Well for the thought of the leviathan being a dinosaur(or whatever the aquatic versions are called), it very well could have been since (especially Old Testament time) back then a dinosaur was mostly likely called a large beast (sorry if the English is bad, it is not my first language)
Also, the word “dinosaur” wasn’t invented until recent history. But if you look across numerous cultures and continents, there are tales of dragons or great beasts. For instance, the Chinese calendar depicts 12 animals that they knew of, the strongest of the beast being a dragon.
Please do a part 2! I've always been so fascinated by these creatures and beings from the Bible and used to draw them when I was younger!
Yes!! Please do a part two!! A deep dive into angels would be AWESOME. I would love to see them more fleshed out, especially the Ophanim. You're right, there's a reason the angels are constantly saying "fear not"--because they're absolutely terrifying!
So I'm a Christian and a 3D artist (I do character art). This is just super fascinating! Even as a Christian myself, I tend to stay away from doing artistic depictions of Biblical stories and creatures because Christians can be incredibly nitpicky and toxic about anything with the Bible and artistic license, but watching this has honestly been inspiring!
Edit: I didn't expect myself to get this much of a response. Thank you guys so much!
Go forth! The Lord and His Son would be proud of you to showcase their words!
Don't let Christians who don't practice God taught love keep you from doing it
As a Christian, I always find it strange to see self proclaimed Christians hopping on the anti christian bandwagon.
Im christain and I love it when people do art for God
God calls you to show others the glory and might of the lord give man a fraction of the beuty God has.

That was the point of these monsters in the first place. Not everyone in the world would be able to understand the magnitude of evil in sin, but everyone knows how terrifying a fire-breathing serpent bringing death and chaos would be. However, God has already killed this serpent in the victory of the cross. God loves us so much he didn't want to leave us to the leviathan we created.

fun thing about Seraphim, in some places they're also described as serpentine! Wreathed in flames and singing. Angels are incredibly strange entities and I love them
I always read that as they moved in serpentine ways- like gliding/slipping through the air. Not in actual appearance to be serpentine. We would have to check the Hebrew to know for sure!
@@AdreeThompsonLMT That's a possible interpretation! Though I do like to imagine them as at least partially snakelike. Perhaps with a snake's tail instead of legs, combined with the flames and wings giving the illusion of flowing robes. It's fun to play with their designs!
I really loved this so much!! I love the Bible and art so it’s awesome that you put both of those together. Thank you ❤
I really liked this!! Definitely want to see a part 2 🤩🤩
Please do a part two! Not only did you do an amazing job, but you were respectful and kind about it too instead of mocking. Thank you!
I'd love to see an entire series of biblicaly accurate creatures.
And angels?
Got my vote as a Christian
jazza you do such a good job with your art and sculpting in all of your videos
keep up the good work
This was very cool. I'd love to see more. Bring on a Part 2!!
As a believer myself, I’d love to see a sculpture of a biblical accurate angel fighting a biblical accurate demon. Would be a sight to behold. Cant wait to see what the next video cooks up!
A God Who Understands
But Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place even to lay his head.”
-Luke 9:58
The reception that the world gave Mary and Joseph before Christ was born is typical of the reception it gave Jesus when He was here on this earth. Jesus Himself said, “Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place even to lay his head”
(Luke 9:58)
We’ve romanticized the story of Jesus’ birth in our Nativity scenes, with Mary, Joseph, and the baby in a stable full of adoring animals. Meanwhile, the shepherds and wise men look on as a bright star shines in the distance and angels fly overhead.
But the reality is that the birth of Jesus was cold, unsanitary, and difficult. He was wrapped not in satin but in cheap rags. That doesn’t diminish the story. Rather, it enhances it to show the humiliation that Christ went through to enter this world of ours.
It symbolizes His entire life on Earth from the cradle to the cross. Jesus could have been born in the most elegant mansion on the ritziest boulevard in the Roman Empire. He could have had aristocratic parents. He could have had the finest clothes from the most exclusive shops. And He could have had legions of angels at His beck and call.
But He did not. Instead, He laid it all aside.
Think about it: Jesus was born in a cave. He borrowed food to feed a crowd. He borrowed a coin to illustrate a truth. And He rode into Jerusalem on a borrowed donkey and celebrated Passover in a borrowed room. He even died on a borrowed cross that was meant for another: Barabbas. Then He was laid in a borrowed tomb that belonged to Joseph of Arimathea.
C.H. Spurgeon said that Jesus was “infinite, and an infant eternal, and yet born of a woman . . . supporting the universe, and yet needing to be carried in a mother’s arms.”
Philippians 2:6-7 points out, “Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being”
He who was larger than the universe became an embryo. Jesus Christ was deity in diapers.
Jesus was God in Heaven. Then He was God as an embryo, God as a baby, God as a man, God on the cross, and God rising again. He never ceased to be God. But He did lay aside some of the privileges of deity.
Philippians goes on to say, “When he appeared in human form, he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross” (2:7-8).
Jesus humbled Himself and walked this earth and breathed our air and lived our life. And then He died our death. We have a God in Heaven who understands what it’s like to walk through this life. He literally felt our pain. And He went through all of this for us.
Demons have no description in the bible
I think demons are just angels who went bad? There really isnt a physical difference
@scottydu81 Ik for sure they’ll look far off from the classic hot demon mommy showcases in every video game ever 😂
@@scottydu81 I mean, two “human-like” figures fighting with wings and absolutely beautiful would still be amazing to see!
Bring on part 2! As a Christian, awesome to see these illustrated and come to life with your incredible talent!!
I agree!!
Please do part two😭🙏 This video was way too short💔 I loved it
This was amazing!! I would love to see a part 2!
I, as a Christian, would love to see more biblical creatures and angels!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm a Christian too!
Its really amazing how creative God can be omw
@@ThatWannabeNerdwe Christians know that God has no bounds but are amazed every time
Same
Yeahhh!!!!!
The leviathan is from the book of Job chapter 41. Growing up as a Christian as a child I used to always reread that chapter and try to picture what it looked like. Fun fact, Job is actually the oldest book in the Bible. Great video by the way.
We don't need a whole history lesson
@@Earlierfourthe comment wasn’t even that long
I see the leviathan being something like Godzilla
@@Earlierfour sorry that four sentences is exhaustive reading for you
Funny enough, but considering how it's mentioned with animals like horses, ostriches or eagles, and described to have strong jaw, he may be just crocodile.
i definitely would LOVE a part 2 and 3. this video was so cool and entertaining and i’d love for you to describe and draw creatures from the last book of the bible and possibly even people who had in depth descriptions. the video has over 1.4 million views and nearly 1 million likes within 2 weeks so i think that if you’re up for it, an entire series would be amazing
I absolutely love this. I'm a Catholic and a fantasy and Ray Harryhausen fan, so this was very much my cup of tea. You're a brilliant artist, sir. I adore the respect and enthusiasm you have shown for the subject matter.
I honestly am fascinated by the leviathan! The creature that swallowed Jonah has also been called a leviathan and whales cannot swallow anything larger than a beach ball, so it has to be something else. There have been large serpentine like skeletons that have been discovered in deserts that line up geographically with the location the story happened. Adittionally if you look at old pieces of art of Jonah and the "whale" they are all portrayed as long serpentine creatures. Apologies for the long comment, but there is some information on the leviathan!
What about Jonah being swallowed by a Whale Shark?
@Daz30 looking online, it also wouldn't be able to because it's throat is the size of a human fist, hence why they would eat krill
No way you put bible and science in one comment
"So it has to be something else" or.... It was simply made up
Like Arc of Noe, we have the proof, the same skeletons that would prove your serpent like creature actually exist and prove dinosaurs that fucking prove that faith is bullshit
@@Daz30 Whale shark is not big enough to swallow a human
Or maybe, the entire story is made up. Anybody who has any kind of knowledge about the anatomy of living creatures, knows that it is impossible for a person to live inside the belly of any kind of animal for any amount of time
Bible descriptions are tricky because they are less a visual description than they are about character. And as you say, a lot of them are physically impossible. But I love what you did with them, beyond the conventional leviathan = crocodile and behemoth = hippo. Also, I love the touch of your sketches being in that rough looking sketchbook, Definitely want to see part two!
behemoth is definitely a sauropod, i mean hippos and elephants and any land animal thats big right now does not have a tail that comese even close to being stiff like a cedar. Also sauropods were able to stand on their hind legs! That would take an insane amount of loin strength not to mention how big and strong their bones are!
@@derpgio9882 They were monstrous beasts that ate plants. Seems accurate, to me.
@@derpgio9882cool theory!
@@derpgio9882 I have always seen behemoths as massive (hundreds of feet tall, tens of meters tall) gorilla-ox creature
@@derpgio9882except no sauropod existed in that time. And they never describe the length of the tail, but it's properties. In some translations it's stiffens like a cedar(NOT a North American Cedar but a Lebanese Cedar) and in others they say it swayeth(or moveth) like a Cedar, which also aligns with a Lebanese. It also describes Behemoth to lay under a Lotus tree for shade, which no sauropod would be able to do. Now personally I align with it being an elephant since it's the biggest living land animal, existed at the time, can both stiffen it's tail when threatened and sways it's tail, can find shade under a Lotus, and fits other descriptions in the biblical text.
Brother, I've been watching your videos for a while, and I really love what you do. You've such an amazing talent and you make every interpretation your own in the •very best• ways.
So glad this popped up on my feed!! I used to watch all of your videos!! Eeeee!!! So happy I refound you!
Fun fact: the word Seraphim is also a Hebrew word for serpents, as well as a translation for "burning ones". Ive mentioned this elsewhere, but, I've always kinda liked the idea of them being these fiery limbed serpents with the 6 wings, basically holy dragons. Anyways, love the work,that leviathan looks epic!
The serpent/dragon idea is new to me, and I'm loving it.
Flying firry serpents.
PLEASE do a PART 2, Jazza!!! This was awesome! Also, do you think Trogdor the Burninator looks like the Leviathan intentionally?
That's amazing! I never knew that lol
I didn't see any consummate V's, or an S, a more different S, or angry eyebrows. Very different looking to me.
@@joshuaremba8261 He wouldn't know majesty if it came up and bit him in the face. Lol!!!
🤣
This was very fun to watch. The leviathan in particular always fascinated me as a kid- I love your interpretation! I’d love to see a part 2/series.
pls make a part two, loved this
Yeesss!! I really want to see part 2! As a Christian I love seeing these amazing descriptions brought to life by your artistic skills!! I've always been fascinating by all these creatures and you're doing them total justice!
dude, I know what you mean, as a Christian I'm kinda sad not many people know the bible is metal as hell (pun intended)
Amen
@@mist6950 As a kid: "David threw a rock at a big man, and he died. The end."
Reading it: "David slung a massive stone at an armored giant, knocked him unconscious, decapitated him with his own sword, and held it aloft before his enemies, likely absolutely slathered in blood and roaring."
Compared to other mythologies it is a bit on the boring side, IMO
The cherubim are WILD. i wouldn't begin to know how to do a creature with four faces! I'm loving this. Please bring us part 2 Jazza.
So cool to see these come to life thank you @Jazza 😇
I loved this! Please make part 2!❤
I would love a part 2.
“Malachim” (the “ch” is pronounced as a khh sound, like “ich” in German by the by) just means “messengers” (Malachim is plural) in Hebrew, and we get our English word “Angel” by way of the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible. The word αγγελος (pronounced sort of like “angelos” with a hard g) also meant “messenger” in Greek and was used to translate Malachim.
The other heavenly beasties, like Seraphim (the “burning ones”), ofanim (just means “wheels”), chayot (those are the ones with 4 faces, means “living creatures”), and cherubim (means something like “those who intercede”) are never called “malachim” in the Bible, and they all became lumped together as types of angel in the early Christian era.
(I spent too much time studying the history of Judaism and Christian in antiquity, does it show?🤪)
it does but it's also impressive knowledge and interesting from a non-religious standpoint. The 'monsters'/deities/gods etc. that various religions around the world come up with have always interested me, my favourites being Kali, Frejya, Brigid, Ganesh, and the "old school" "angels" which are in quotes because I prefer the descriptors used in the bible versus the not-so-cannon-art renderings of angels that are prevalent from the renaissance onwards.
As a biblical scholar I really enjoyed your take on this. The bible is full of imagery that evokes terror and awe. Whether it be Angels, Fallen Angels or Demonic Spirits (yes, they are separate) the Bible gives us really vivid and fantastical descriptions of these beings. Chances are if you met them in real life you would be terrified. Even Angels, who are benelovent have frightening descriptions. Leviathan is actually a Fallen Angel. His realm is the abyss. The deepest part of the ocean where light doesn’t touch. The abyss (abussos in Greek) is the habitat of demonic spirits, as the bible tells us. Right throughout different mythologies there are dragons or serpent gods. Satan is mentioned in Genesis as appearing like a serpent. It’s interesting to note that Angels or Fallen Angels can actually shapeshift from their natural form to that of beasts or humans. This is seen in the bible several times including the two men who visited Sodom and Gomorrah before it’s destruction and the man standing near Jesus tomb on Easter Sunday.
Hey, I don't mean any harm, but I'm curious why you believe that angels shapeshift? I haven't found that in the Bible before, so I would be really interested if you could point that out. In your example of Sodom it doesn't say that the angels shapeshifted or anything, simply they're appearance was like men.
@artistryunicorn928 that's why, because the angels that visited were archangels and look different than man. Hence the idea of shape-shifting. Also Isaiah describes the fall of Lucifer from the most beautiful of all that God had created, to being given domain of Earth, and then called a serpent, a dragon, and I believe there is a translation thing regarding the word Leviathan as I think in Hebrew it's the same as great Serpent or similar. This is why you might have the description of being slain with a sword by God because in Revelation the Great Serpent/Dragon is slain with a sword which is the word of God from the mouth of Jesus. I could be getting a bit mixed up but there are very different descriptions of Leviathan because of the mix between Isaiah and Job, and depending on translation Revelation... correct me if I am wrong
@@beyond5150 Yes. You’re right. Leviathan is a fallen angel. His abode is the abyss (from the Greek abussos). The abyss is the habitat of evil spirits (demons). I have studied a lot of comparative mythology and dragons or serpents are a common theme throughout different mythologies. Wikipedia states: “The Leviathan of the Book of Job is a reflection of the older Canaanite Lotan, a primeval monster defeated by the god Baal Hadad.[1][2] Parallels to the role of Mesopotamian Tiamat defeated by Marduk have long been drawn in comparative mythology, as have been wider comparisons to dragon and world serpent narratives such as Indra slaying Vrtra or Thor slaying Jörmungandr.[3] Leviathan also figures in the Hebrew Bible as a metaphor for a powerful enemy, notably Babylon (Isaiah 27:1). Behemoth is also equated with fallen angels / evil spirits. When Lucifer and his conspirators fell, they were cast out of heaven. We know Satan’s dominion was (and still is for a time) earth. He has authority here. How else was he able to offer Jesus all the kingdoms of earth? Living on earth these Fallen Angels became false gods that tried to corrupt everything God had created. That includes animals and the environment. That’s why God sent cataclysms, so that he could start again. Thanks for the comment. Take care.
Muito texto.
Interesting. This is the first time I heard that leviathan is a fallen angel. I'm just used to leviathan, behemoth, and ziz being described as the first animals God created.
Amazing sculpting 😻 enjoying ur series
I love your version of these creatures! Do more!
The cherubim drawing was really cool! They were always the hardest biblical creature for me to visualize because of how many wings it had. I always pictured a dragon fly looking person. Great job Jazza!
Please do a part 2 these are cool to see brought to life!!!
Part 2 please!! This was so fun
Yes, part 2 please! Excellent stuff!!
Part 2 please! Ive never seen any artist done a biblical creatures sculpture. I would love to see more.
Come on, LET'S BREAK A MILLION VIEWS!! We NEED a Part 2 to this.
Already done! 🤩
Please do a part 2! That was great.
I love the way that you went about this video. Being respectful towards the religion without being preachy about it. sometimes it feels like nobody understands that you can just... be neutral.
As a Christian that loves reading his bible everyday this was really cool to see! God bless you brother, Jesus loves you❤
You read the Bible everyday and still don't realize you are actively sinning and that his name was never Jesus?? I stand by y assertation that religious people are dim. It's a book of fiction.
@@MrDmadness Bro took it personaly💀💀
@@MrDmadnessIf it's a book of fiction then how come 100's of prophecies in it have been fulfilled with 100% accuracy?
@@MrDmadness if you want give you respect, earn it and be respectful
@@pupperonyrl6451 they haven't, that's how.
As a person whose heart lies closer to sculpting than drawing I love this video, excited for part 2!
this is amazing!!! Part 2 please!😄
Im so happy with this video! It's so cool to see what they would've looked like!
As a christian, I appreciate that you've treated the text respectfully and taken it seriously. You've done an amazing job with your depictions and I'm looking foreward to the next video. There's a lot of really cool creatures you can still do.
Do you know where in the Bible are these creatures described?
@@anilegendary6094these two dinos are the book of Job, the angels are throughout, and the representative beast creatures are Revilations
@anilegendary6094 Leviathan and behemoth are in Job, Seraphims in Isaiah. The rest are spread throughout the bible I believe. Some in Ezekiel
In Psalm 74, Leviathan is described as being multi-headed. I'll leave it there to avoid further conflict
@bluefloyd1 That does not matter in this context at all. Jazza is doing art based on a prompt. And if you were listening, his prompts were entirely from one passage in Job. And he recreated what he read in that passage. Other passages do not matter in this context. Why did you even feel the need to say this 🤣🤣🤣
I’ve never wanted to see a video hit 1 million views as badly as this one. I’ve always been fascinated by the descriptions of Angels. Seeing you bring them to life is amazing!
It's so amazing how you do this!😁 i love all those videos!❤ can't wait to see part two!😂
You need to do a part two jazza !!!! Please !!!!!
Bro I’ve watched you for a while and I’m Christian I just wanna say thank you for this. This was dope seeing a popular artist do stuff from scripture and you were so respectful about it the whole time. Most people make a mockery of it but you were so kind thank you this was sick!!!
You can trust in Jazza to supply top notch content immediately after you wake up for work. Much love to you and the fam Jazza, keep up the good work!
What about his brother? Sending love that way…? 😅
Amazing images I love your creative method!
The video was amazing pls do a part 2
I would love if you are eager to continue this like a series of making more 3D monsters from mythological/religious stories and texts. Since there are tons and tons of descriptions in many of these tellings such as Anceint Greek mythology/religion, Norse mythology/religion, Chinese, Japanese, Yoruba etc..
Imo it would awesome if we could how they could look based on their descriptions and artistic process.
Super cool idea. Moving away from modern creations and looking into what ancient people's mythical creature ideas were like is a great change. I'd love to see a part 2 and also maybe branching into other religious texts that describe fantastical creatures.
This is very cool! I'd love a part 2
I love this idea!
Part two please. 🤩
That was super entertaining! I’ve never seen a 3D rendition of a creature from the Bible before. That was cool!
I wanted to ask you a question do you think bible is the same now as it was when it was written
My first reaction was to wonder which creatures you would choose.
I knew he was gonna either gonna do levithian, behemoth,or nephilim
@@rebeccaberton4144 I don't recall many descriptions of the nephilim in the canon texts, so that would be rather hard, comparatively.
Leviathan and Behemoth, though, are 100% up his alley. I really like how the sculpture came out.
@@robertbeisert3315there’s a canon in the bible?
@MrLemonaiden as far as I know, that's where we get the idea of canon in fantasy works. There have been long debates over which books are definitely of God, which may still be true, and which are total frauds.
The Bible is the 66 books upheld as divinely inspired word of God - "canon."
There are a handful of others that some hold to be useful for instruction or otherwise true - we call these deuterocanonical, or "retelling the canon".
Some are questionable but well liked by certain sects - we call these "apocrypha", or "of questionable origin."
And, finally, we have the non-canon heretical works, which are known to be fraudulent, deviant, or otherwise unwelcome reading.
@Mralemonaiden there are different translations of the bible and some words can be different or stuff might not be in some translations at all
I truly enjoyed this...cant wait for part 2
Oh I hope there's a part two to this video!!!
