The Leviathan in Scripture: Ouroboros Symbolism
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 чер 2024
- The Leviathan is a strange creature in the Bible and tradition. In this video I look at the Leviathan, the sea serpent, the dragon, and its relationship to the devil, and how al of these associations came to be what they can mean. And also it can help us understand how symbolism can be polyvalent that is that symbolism can have multiple meanings at the same time, and that understanding those multiple meanings can also help us understand how symbolism works and then also help us understand the specific meanings that are attributed to each symbol and the leviathan.

Jonathan, do you have any connections with author Joseph Pearce, know for his literary work Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. I think the two of you could have a most engaging interview and dialogue.
Sir, I am your regular scribble watching video regularly actually I am from India City name Lucknow I want attend this Saminaar but I have not enough money to purchase it. Rishi kumar satsangi, thoughts and social reformer

When I first heard Jonathan talk with Jordan Peterson years ago, I thought, "Who is this guy? What is he talking about?" Now I listen to Jonathan way more than Jordan lol
Hahah me too - symbolic language is strange in the beginning
Same here, and this video makes me feel better about a rather large never ending story influenced tattoo I have on my leg. The story of Jonah is one that's always stuck with me from childhood, and as a recently chrismated Orthodox Christian, the harrowing of hell is a favorite icon and part of theology for me. Symbolism runs so deep, I hope these are the aspects I was connecting with the whole time.
After Jordan came back from the benzo thing, he seemed to have a Gandalf the White kind of aura about him. Honestly thought he would do some great things. His association with the Daily Wire dimmed that shine pretty quickly though.
@@eighteenfiftynineagreed, it seems Jordan has been more inclined to climb up the ladder of the world instead of ascending towards truth
@@isaibustillos7293 sad but true bro
Nothing more beautiful than seeing a man like Jonathan hit his stride
You can see how much it means to him that JBP is coming to his Conference.. Beautiful to see, indeed
As G.K. Chesterton once said, one’s tail is “quite an unsatisfactory meal.” This is both funny and insightful, as it points to the truth that self-referential activity is synonymous with self-negation, the loss of true selfhood through self-devouring.
“The fool folds his hands and eats his own flesh.” Ecclesiastes 4:5
In truth, identity consists not in self-consumption, but in communion with God.
interesting comment.
So, sniffing yourself, and hugging your lap is a bad idea?
I'm sorry, I must be stupid--is this about narcissism or masturbation?
@@MeanBeanComedy you are correct, you are stupid
I don’t know why but something about this video just changed my entire paradigm… my mind is shattered 🤯
Mr Pageau needs to write more nonfiction books. I want to read about symbols for eternity.
But that would be like eating your own tail! ;)
Analyzing narcissism through the Leviathan symbolism is very helpful.
One of my favourite parts of the entire bible is God in Job like "you think you could wrestle the primordial chaos into order and being?"
Been thinking a lot about these symbols recently, especially the relationship between the dragon and devil, so this came at the right time. Thanks Jonathan
It's interesting because it's the year of the dragon in the Chinese zodiac
Same
There is a massive hint to what God is and what he looks like in numbers 21:6-9, and it will surprise you.
@@justice8718 yeah Christ’s comparison to the bronze serpent in the wilderness in John 3.14 is so deep. Moses instructing his people focus their attention on the serpent (what’s poisoning them) to be cured. Like now as Christian’s we fix our attention on Christ to overcome what ails the us and be redeemed through him. Anyway that’s just one of my interpretations, it’s so deep you can come at it from so many ways.
@@ThomasH__
The WORD that is God itself is literally a dragon… look at the name…
YHWH
(A dragon head, neck, two wings, and a tail)
The reason why Moses and the Israelites are forced to look at the serpent is because that is what the God of Israel, the giver of Life, looks like.
Thank you so much for making the conference available by video! I am so excited to be able to watch after the event!
At one point in my life, contemplating the Opus's ( against ) purpose in existence and its role in our deification, I was looking out the kitchen window and inadvertently touched the broom and it fell and thus I realized it apparently split the kitchen floor in two. That event generated a series of understandings regarding the duality of the serpent that culminated in a vision. I was between wakefulness and sleep, and suddenly I saw how in a dark space there was an opening like a square-shaped pit, a kind of square well where there was clean water and which was too deep for me to understand it. While admiring its cleanliness I noticed a fish tail and wanted to see it better. And suddenly what appeared to be a fish turned and a golden dragon appeared and came out of the water and approached me but with half-opened, almost closed eyes. I wanted to see the eyes and the golden dragon came closer to my face and opened its eyes a little wider but it was looking down and I saw for a second that the eyes were electric, like lightning and immediately after, the dragon retreated and went back into clean water.
Thank you!
Cool
Would love to see a "this is who I am and here's my mission" type video! ✨💜
My mind is blown just thinking about all the AMAZING people who will be at the upcoming Summit. I feel like I’ve won the golden ticket to be able to experience the most significant event of the year.
Bro, impressive AF
Super helpful for speeding up my theological edu
Much appreciated 👍
Genesis- And the Ruach Hakodesh brooded over the waters (chaotic and dark)
I feel bad I don't comment very often, but I'll just say I've been devouring your videos, Jonathan. 😂 It connects so many things. Honestly it was through Jungian psychology that I first started to understand symbolism, and I think it can be helpful, but your videos are so much more, really. My heart leaped when I saw this--partly because I wanted to understand ouroboros symbolism more, and this did it. Looking forward to watching Universal History: Dragons. Just so fascinating. . .
So… When are we going to get the Symbolic World Beastiary?
Thanks for this. The Bible Project just got done on doing a loooong series on the serpent/dragon/ leviathan in the whole cannon. I have a very personal relationship to this topic and the Book of Job in particular. Keep it up 👍
Way better to start at the beginning of the video. The intro makes sense for the entire presentation. Thanks Johnathan.
Perfect time to reference Jonah with the fast approaching
The ouroboros surrounding the tree when connected to the tree of knowledge in eden and the image of jerusalem as a wall around eden is interesting. The leviathan, itself, is a creature made up of all these parts, which suggests that it isn't just a creature, it's a creature of separate interacting pieces. I've often thought that God can't really be contained in prophets, or the christ, because God is active in the world through many small events and in relationship. God is a whole story, not an individual piece of creation that is acting in a moment of time. In the end, humanity has taken knowledge and become leviathan. We consume ourselves in order to grow.
I'll be at the conference! Stoked
Beautiful. Thank you.
Interesting synchronicity.
Thank you for explaining this.
I really enjoyed this one, and I always like when you mention James Lindsay. Sometimes I picture him like St Micheal getting his hands dirty to slay the earthly dragon, but with a lot more attitude and some ego. I hope he gives his sacrifice, in the battle against Gnostic wokism, up to the highest.
Super bummed I can’t make it to the conference
This is very very fascinating.

Thank you Jonathan!
What is usually a trope nailed upon church doors?...a message...a declaration. It's a inner and outer story...a story with unique precision to tell "The Story"
His Story.
Much love
The richness of symbolism in the Bible and all the interrelatedness is what shattered my previous skepticism. I also gained a lot out of Jung's Aion (I think the deepest work ever written outside the Bible). The symbol of the serpent upon the tree is one of the most profound. I am blown away at how it relates to the transformation of oppositional chaos at the cross. It shifts it by turning it into surrendered potential through the highest sacrifice, transforming sin itself into perfect identity and glory at the crucifixion. The stuff that existed before all creation is the prima materia, the power of the resurrection. Christ is at the focus of the cosmos.
Be careful not to sound like the alchemist, occultist, and gnostics ☆ ■● ☆
@@Atopos333what anyone MEANS is what counts, or else we’re in the business of maintaining appearances. Anything other than sincerity is deception. If someone is sincere I should in some way receive them as a prophet, though screened through the gift of Christ. I may see Christ in all manner of places.
Was Christ concerned with appearances? If yes, it all falls.
@fl7210 I was being sarcastic brother lol
he was asked in the desert by the serpent to just skip to the end and immediately become king of all the world but christ said no and ended up continuing on his path to his ultimate demise. as god incarnate he had infinite potential and couldve taken and done anything he wanted immediately but sacrificed his potential and transformed it into what stabilised chaos and defeated death for others. exactly as you say he surrendered infinite potentail as the highest sacrifice.
I'm sure Jonathan has touched on it before but I wonder how the symbolism of Atlantis being a civilization in the sea relates to Leviathan.
Great video brother. Lux Æterna Recusant ad Infinitum.

The Book of Job is awesome God is so cool when he was like hey Job check out Leviathan it was like, wow. Great book
Maybe your best video yet!
Interesting explanation - it helped me understand some more things. What do you think about the relationship between the Ouroboros and "time"? Could time be the Satan that deludes everyone? We are all caught in its web, but people do have moments where time falls away / becomes illusory. The death of time is the entry into eternity.
Smart thought. “Eternal life is timelessness” (paraphrase)… Tractatus.
I suspect Leviathan and Behemoth are the ocean and wind currents. Two massive and complex forces that everything affects and which affect everything, both of which we are impacting today but with unknown consequences.
the wind currents are Ziz, the monster bird from the Hebrew Psalms, 50:11 and 80:13.
@@thedreadtyger I don’t see it and that doesn’t account for the Leviathan. It also fails to explain why Leviathan and Behemoth are inadvertently described by God as being comparable in power/impressiveness, yet fundamentally different according to each’s equal but unique and elementally different niches (Job). They are mentioned together in places (Job), and separately, but neither is mentioned with another force comparable to either.
Thank you
Circularity for me points to circular time: the reoccurrence of the catastrophe/ the cataclysm. The symbolism of death goes well with an extinction event / a near death event for human civilization itself. Not even talking about the symbols of the dragon and the lance both work as symbols for the impactor.
Edit: as for the images of the staff, the tree, the pillar (and yes: the cross): I think it might stand for the axis of the Earth, especially in depictions where the staff is at around 23 degrees. - Earth Crust displacement theories have the axis tumbling over and causing the flood. (Samson (“little Sun”) brought the Pillar down on the House. Samson’s long hair is the symbol for the active Sun / protuberances / CMEs.)
Read “Hamlet’s Mill”: Samson in chains turns the Mill (the axis), but with broken chains (and regrown hair) he tumbles the pillar and brings the house down.
(I’m following everything about the new catastrophism with great interest, and project everything I find on it: things are hard to unsee, once one starts seeing patterns. Kind of a strange attractor, I’m the moth going around the light in circles myself.)
The problem is: the interpretations are endless: maybe the Snake around the Staff could also be the dying and reforming geo-magnetic field that allows the cataclysm to happen. - Or it could represent the Kuiper Belt around our planetary system that is the origin for a lot of comets (= possible impactors). Making things fit only requires some fantasy - what is a stretch, and what is not?
Rumination, or oscillation,
call it multitudinous
octaves - scaled.
The chamber of an antiquated revolver; pushing
when pulled, speaks
frequently, with resounding
roar, each vowel
a victory at speak.
Relief for the hand, the strings unfretted, unhurried,
unfettered - the word is
sustained, for a spell,
a period; decaying,
though memorialised
in the heart of a sea-shell.
The straight lines
of the square, protest
the singers In the round.
They are yet to realise
their inherent circularity.
My favorite ouroboros? The Klein bottle
The repetition of symbolism is so amazing. I've no doubt that in the eternal state, we'll learn even more ways God sprinkled symbolism all throughout His Word. I hadn't connected the staff into snake with the bronze serpent. Seems obvious now, especially since they both happened with Moses. You really can read scripture over and over and still discover something new.
Awesome
Thanks
I was wondering about the leviathan today. Then a few hours later a video comes out. 🤯
Very good talk, thank you Jonathan! How does one learn how to be so symbolicly oriented!??
The healing aspect of the serpent is not fully understood as it ought to be. It's connected to the doctrine of not resisting evil. If you surrender to the destruction that evil brings into your life, in your heart, at the end of the healing process, wisdom is derived. One's soul is healed and purified through that encounter and the processing of the pain that follows. That doesn't mean condoning evil. It doesn't mean embracing evil. Nor pacifism exactly. Quite the opposite. You must discern evil. You must tell yourself the deep truth within. You must experience the devastation it brings. But at the end of the process, when it's truly done fully, and authentic forgiveness arises, the connections and reasons become clear. It points to the way that evil serves the divine plan of salvation; it serves indirectly. That's why it exists, as a catalyst of sorts.
Any chance some of the summit talks will end up on the youtube channel, or at least free to your Symbolic World patrons at some point in the future?
It's curious how this Saint Michael image looks like "São Jorge" a very popular saint hrer in Brazil. Thank you professor for sharing so many knowledge with us.
Wonderful as always, Jonathan!❤
How does the Harrowing of Hades - which Jonathan has discussed previously as emptying Hades of the dead, and thus the the culmination or final/ultimate story - work with the Last Judgement, where Christ is consigning people to Death?
Is it that Death pertains more toward complete dissolution (chaos, water, Leviathan), contrasted with those (souls) suffering Hell/Hades?
04:50 The talk starts here.
I think the circulary of the 2nd century statues is from the sculpture wanting to use the whole piece of marble
Thank you SO MUCH! I bought a ticket, but I can’t attend.
I’m eager to receive my Snow White book.
Still hasn’t arrived, can’t wait !
Would Leviathan be a primordial entity like Tiamat, Typhon, apothos?
Representing primordial chaos which birthed all life and will probably take it
nice
I can hear James Lindsay breathing accelerating. Especially at 19:50
My art shows my experience with THIS.
I am currently working on a piece in charcoal around this serpentine leviathan surrounding the world idea.
I am in Jonathan! I will buy all your books. 🎉😂
Don't know if you know, but the lord of spirits book has great dragon info and the Author cites you at one point.
Some places the circular snake eating its tail is used to represent human cannibalism but it looks like they adopted this symbol like you said.
Oh man Jonathan! So many questions.
I wonder if this means that the interpretation in my leviathan video is wrong or just incomplete?
I'd love to hear you speak on the symbolism of the snake in Hinduism and shaivism in particular, perhaps even tying it in with the way the neojungian theorist Robert l moore speaks of the dragon in his book called "Facing the dragon ", on spiritual grandiosity. Thanks so much for sharing all of this.
Though he announced he'd write a book about "loving the dragon" too. He passed away before he could get to that but spoke about this in lectures available on UA-cam.
Funny how the largest "fish" in the ocean are mixtures, are dragons, mammals that breath air yet live underwater.
a snake or serpent also symbolizes creation as a whole, it can be understood as any creature in relation to God, because we are potential in respect to the essential act of God.
What is the name of the journal you've written for that you have mentioned at times throughout your various podcasts?
Probably the Orthodox Arts Journal which he co-founded
@@user-tp7wi4lt2b thank you
This is so interesting. I learn so much from the symbolic world. Please go on a tour to Scandinavia. Particulary Sweden. I wonder if I still can by Snowwhite from kickstarter, I am not totally sure how it is working.
At least if you back the God's Dog kickstarter you can add the Snow White books as add-on's after the campaign. Or if you only want the fairy tales you could wait until fall when the next fairy tale kickstarter should launch.
27:26 - their imagery may be referencing the 74th Psalm 🤔
It is only those that ponder the pleroma that gain the sence of intuition in symbols.

One of your best. Probably the best together with the Batman one. On a side note I think God gets a loud laugh whenever the secular artist type, is shown to play into a divine pattern - so I think the pattern by which a christian civilization will rise again, is by demolishing what exists now with exactly what you just described as the snake. Essentially pop art shown to submit to Christianity by combining it into a chimera.
We are in a dire necessity to integrate everything that could be possibly raised up, which is anything that shows some beautify of it's own. The device of this chimera will make all these pagan yet glorified netflix-show-kind-of-multiplicity that pulls people into cynicism, into the trick by which the fool catches on fire making everyone in the flip a Christian. The christian pattern combined with any lesser pattern, will always make the lesser pattern become almost stripped of it's impurity, while retaining some vestigial Idiosincracy. That vestige could be the redemption of even the worst sinner.
On the Anglo-Saxon Franks Casket Jonah is thrown into the mouth of a serpent whose body forms the wave shapes, likewise on the other side where the creature vomits him out. The casket's lock is in between them so it was presumably used to store a Bible/The Good News.
@Jonathan Pageau
I am an artist who feels called to work for you
the God's Dog graphic novel looks incredible
Is God’s dog available online?
It look different because of frequency alignment tech to cities.
The Leviton is a symbol of chaos
The chaos is subservient to God
So in a way yes, Gods “pet”
Thus at the marriage supper of the Lamb, believers are served leviathan as the meal.
I bet it will taste like chicken.
And behemoth
Full metal alchemist!
The knowledge of the self is the leviathan.
Hey Jonathan,,, just a thought that came to me..First I have to bring some of my personal darkness of my past, into the 'light',, by stating in my previous ignorant state of understanding death... I once believed that if I didn't make it to heaven, through my own cause of ending my life,, that I would simply end up as worm food, and no further consequences would follow,,, meaning no more pain and or suffering... With that being said,, starting around the age of 10 or 11yrs old,, and at different times of my life,, as recent being the age of 53,,, I have attempted to end my mortal life.. Today I now understand we're created for eternity,, and thank you Jesus for keeping me alive long enough for this understanding, that is allowing me up t'ill now from ending up in eternal hell... Back to my thought about the symbolism of the snake eating itself,, do you think maybe this could also relate to suicide somehow?.. The snake being shrewd with no compassion towards its own existence..?... My motive with this thought was to somehow link it with teenage suicide prevention,,, if this makes any sense...
Jurassic Park does this perfectly. The chaos and unpredictable nature of the world, represented by these monsters. We create systems of control and technologies, but in a world of complexity, no system of control can fully contain chaos.
💞
This one was too advanced for me. I'll be back in a couple of years and be mindblown.
This dragon seems to have the ability to go in and out of dimensions , seems to be protecting something . Maybe protecting this realm .his treasure might be this planet it’s his until he burns with it .
The experiences I've had related to this are hair-raising. The metaphysical is real.
I present another way of interpreting this symbology.
The Ouroboros is a symbol found in many different cultures, all over the world. It is found in Ancient Egyptian Culture, Ancient Greek, Gnosticism, Alchemy, Norse Mythology, Hinduism, Chinese Mythology, African Traditional Religions, Indigenous Cultures in Americas & South America.
How is it possible, this symbol is found in so many cultures separated by vast oceans? Perhaps this is because it was introduced by Fallen Angels, to teach us to accept the Cycle of Death and Rebirth or - Reincarnation.
In Christian theology, the Ouroboros is seen as Leviathan eatings its tail but no Christian would dare make this connection with reincarnation. But allow me to present a case for this from a dream i received from the Holy Spirit in the early hours of the morning. It was the last vision i saw before my eyes opened.
As Jonathan stated, if we assume Leviathan is the Snake in the Garden, and if eating from the Tree of Good and Evil introduced ‘Sin & Death’ into the lives of Adam and Eve, then it is the introduction of Sin, that caused them to fall into the material (the World & The Flesh), ensnaring them in a never-ending cycle of Death and Rebirth.
This would make Reincarnation the counterfeit form of Eternal Life, where your soul lives on forever, but is trapped in matter (The World & The Flesh) instead.
Before this fall, Adam and Eve lived in Perfection without Death. This was our birthright as long as we lived in obedience to the Will of God, and only consumed from the Tree of Life, in a realm that was specifically designed to have Free Will. But we messed it up, and now we are here.
Why is Christianity one of the only religions that does not teach Reincarnation, because it is a false promise, and God doesn't spend much time in the bible explaining why something is a lie.
Hinduism, Sikhisms, Buddhism, Kabbalah and Jewish Mysticism, Taoism, Jainism, Egyptian mysticism, Platonism and Neo-Platonism & Orphic and Pythagorean doctrines, Indigenous and Tribal Religions, even Theosophists and New Age religions all postulate the pre-existence of the soul that goes through a reincarnation after death. Why have so many groups, and religions taught this? Perhaps it pointless to argue the metaphysics but only to note the Law of Conservation which states, energy cannot be created or destroyed, so when we die, we move on... question is where?
So perhaps the teachings from these religions are not actually false doctrines, instead it exists in a paradox where it is lie and a truth at the same time, creating a loophole for it to exist. This would allow the Devil to create many false religions that teach it as a truth, but also giving us a false promise that this is our condition.
Even Messiah suggested Reincarnation twice, but only for “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!” when he proclaimed John as the coming Elijah.
“He is Elijah who is to come” - Matthew 11:15
“But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not” - Matthew 17:12
How about those who would counter with John saying he was not Elijah when probed by the priests and Levites? Ask yourself, how could John have known this? Afterall, he was just a man who suffered through the same amnesia all of us go through, unlike the Christ who knew who he was, and is omniscient.
When we consider what i present here, John 14:6 now makes even more sense to those who refuse to believe the possibility of Christ being the Only way to the Father.
"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
The Way: The Narrow Path out of this trap.
The Truth: We currently exist in a False Reality (Lie), and He is the Truth.
The Life: We will not experience Death again, when we leave this world.
Perhaps the Spirit of Leviathan, consumed the World, and ‘trapped all souls in their flesh’, making this reality a prison, until a Savior arrives with the keys to Life and Death, first to free his Saints. And then to return once more to free the world, by slaying Leviathan, ending this cycle forever.
ASH
😐
With this in mind how are we supposed to understand the Christ-fish symbol? Is it an image of the cross?
The fact that people think that leviathan is dinosaurs blows my mind. It's the most materialist way to understand the Bible.
The waters are the sky and the dragon is the superbolide.
Got control of the staff got identity, lose control of the staff lose identity
Jonathan is slowly turning into St John the Baptist.
Jonah looks like the tongue of the monster, is that intentional
That would be neat if that was the case because Jonah is an agent of chaos like leviathan the the author of Jonah uses the same terminology that’s used to describe leviathan and it’s applied to Jonah himself because of his disobedience to God.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters is chock full of symbolism
How long has it been since the serpent has actually posed a real threat to humans?
Not necessarily an amount of time since it posed a threat, as if it had a original state of danger until humans fixed the problem. More like since humans figured out a way to weaponize the serpent for their own means.
Ham 📻 radio vs metallurgy and mason days
The Crosier transforms it into a spiral, this matters.
I’m not sure that this is the interpretation of Ouroboros, from my view symbolism is something your supposed to do something with. It’s not just some meaning expressed though symbols. It gives advice usually of a practical nature.
So glad he's not talking about AI..
In physics there is entropy the constant loss of order. So any thing made or beast created by order will decay. Eat it self. So man must serve the made or created to maintain it. The Idea is will man serve his own to maintain or will man serve God to maintain the things of God.
God created the days the animals and man by imposing order upon the earth and heavens that He previously created. And then God put man in charge to maintain it all. But man decided to leave that entropy override and simply get his desire. So man left life for decay and death. So man is no longer able to give order. So christ came to give access to man to regain that thru jesus. So this is about what it is that life force is. And how and what man is and for in being able to use Gods holiness And all that thru Faith in the Christ
What if killing Leviathan was really about God killing all the Dinosaurs?
You kind of remind me of m night shaymalan haha
Reminds me of how radical ideologies are prone to sectarianism and infighting.
