Episode 193: Here Be Dragons! Show Notes

Summary:

"Here be Dragons" was a phrase early cartographers (map makers) used on faraway, uncharted corners of the map. It was used to warn people away from dangerous areas where sea monsters were believed to exist. Most view dragons as mythological creatures, but the Bible has a very different view of them, and they are quite real. Let's explore the mystery of dragons!

Psalm 148:7-14, Job 30:28-31, Psalm 91:10-13, Genesis 3:15, Isaiah 26:20-27:1, Psalm 44:18-26, Deuteronomy 32:31-34, Ezekiel 29:3-6, Isaiah 51:9-11, Jeremiah 51:33-35, Isaiah 13:19-22, Revelation 18:1-3, Jeremiah 9:1-11, Isaiah 34:1-15, Isaiah 35:3-10, Isaiah 43:19-21, Psalm 74:10-14, Revelation 12:3-4, Revelation 12:7-9, Micah 1:8-9, Revelation 16:12-14, Revelation 20:1-3

Takeaway:

Dragons are very much real in Scripture and not at all what mythology presents them to be, although there are hints of truth in the legends. Dragons were considered magical creatures and often depicted as winged serpents. In reality, this likely is a distortion of the actual reptilian beings, Seraphim, who, along with Satan, comprise the serpent brotherhood that is at war with humanity and the Lord. Here be dragons, indeed! They will soon be here, cast down and confined to the earth. And woe unto those who will inhabit the earth in that time!
