Chapter 29 brings us to Egypt, where God compares their pharaoh/king to a water dragon.
Tara-Leigh CobbleHOST
This might be a reference to Leviathan, which we read about in Job 41 and Psalm 104 and Isaiah 27, among other places.
Tara-Leigh CobbleHOST
And since Pharaoh, the water dragon, is kind of like the king of the Nile, he begins to act like he's the one who made it, as if he's Yahweh.
Tara-Leigh CobbleHOST
Uh-oh, pride alert.

a reading from the book of Job.
Jackie Hill PerryHOST
Can you draw out Leviathan with a fish hook or press down his tongue with a cord? Can you put a rope in his nose or pierce his jaw with a hook? Will he make many pleas to you? Will he speak to you soft words? Will he make a covenant with you to take him for your servant forever? Will you play with him as with a bird? Or will you put him on a leash for your girls? Will traitors bargain over him? Will they divide him up among the merchants? Can you fill his skin with harpoons or his head with fishing spears? Lay your hands on him.

A reading from the Gospel according to John On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.

Jim HamiltonHOST
So it's like plant and growth imagery.
Jim HamiltonHOST
And then that puts in the center, verses 28 and 29, where the Lord announces that he knows the king of Assyria and he's going to do to him what he does to Leviathan in Job 41, which is put his hook in his nose and his bit in his mouth and lead him where he wants him to go.
Jim HamiltonHOST
In other words, it's like the Lord is saying, you're just my puppet and I'm using you for my purposes.
Sam EmadiHOST

Jim HamiltonHOST
Verse 28, the Lord says to the king of Assyria, I know you're sitting down and you're going out and coming in and you're raging against me because you have raged against me and your complacency has come to my ears.
Jim HamiltonHOST
I will put my hook in your nose and my bit in your mouth and I will turn you back on the way by which you came.
Sam EmadiHOST
You already mentioned this, Jim, but Job 41, the Lord puts a hook in the jaw of Leviathan.
Sam EmadiHOST
Find similar language, Job 38, where the Lord puts a hook in the jaw of Gog.
