He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood.
Considera el hierro como paja débil, y el bronce como madera podrida.
Para esta criatura poderosa, los metales más fuertes son tan frágiles como materiales descompuestos.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Job, God is speaking to Job about the Leviathan, a formidable sea creature, as part of His response to Job's questions about suffering and divine justice. This verse describes how the Leviathan regards iron as something as insignificant as straw and brass as decayed wood, highlighting its overwhelming strength and the uselessness of human weapons against it. In the ancient Near Eastern culture, such mythical creatures were often used in literature to symbolize chaos and to affirm God's ultimate control over all creation.
