Behemoth and Leviathan, from Illustrations of the Book of Job
Artist: William Blake
The Lord points down towards two beasts, Behemoth and Leviathan, and instructs Job about the extent and power of His creation. Artist: William Blake
The Book of Job describes Behemoth who dominates the land, as 'the chief of the Ways of God.' Leviathan, a Sea Monster, is 'King over all the Children of Pride.' Artist: William Blake
In his book 'Jerusalem' Blake has these two monsters representatives of war by land and by sea. This relationship is explicitly seen in Blake's two pictures showing Admiral Nelson and William Pitt included in this display. One interpretation of this design is that these beasts stand for the hopelessness of material nature. Artist: William Blake
The Lord is pointing out to Job the negativeness of his faith so far.
